Error under Solaris 9

I have this error when installing under Solaris 9 :

Aha. I have this error under Solaris 10. I tracked it down to gmake auto-
generating dependency files (as it is supposed to do) and using g++ specific
command options. I'm not sure if this is an ICU bug. (the bug being assuming
g++ too early)

I don't know how to solve this, as gmake is extremely unhelpful at providing
any debugging info when it comes to automatically generating files included
into the main Makefile, which is how ICU's dependency files are implemented.

Are you configuring parrot with --cxx=CC ? That ought to keep icu
from trying options specific to g++.

No.

But if Configure.pl knows that my cc is not gcc, should the Solaris hints
file be defaulting cxx to CC, if cxx is not specified on the command line?

(if yes, then I don't think I understand Configure.pl well enough to patch it
to do this)

Ideally, Configure.pl should be probing for and testing for a suitable c++
compiler (and asking interactively, if appropriate). It doesn't do
that now.

Failing that, then, yes, the solaris hints file ought to kick in and do
the right thing.

This is how we did solve the problem :

First start configure as :

# perl Configure.pl  --ask  --icuplatform=SOLARISGCC

Each answer to questions must be gcc or g++ depending.

then we start gmake :

# gmake

before test we must export the perl5lib as :

# export PERL5LIB=/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/

and finish the installation.

# gmake test
# gmake install
