Thanks for the report.  However, this has been previously reported, and
the same patch already exists in git.

error building coreutils on Solaris 9 - Makefile:541: *** missing separator

2008-06-19 Thread Poor Yorick
installing coreutils-6.12 on SunOS 5.9, with gcc-4.2.2 and gnu ld, "make" fails
because there are newlines in the @MAN@ variable:

Makefile:541: *** missing separator.  Stop.

The following patch eliminates the newlines:
