I find I have to mess around with my path all the time when on solaris.
I can't remember what I set it to last time I compiled exim, but here is
my usual procedure when compiling anything.
set my path up so it uses the gnu tools first, then the sun tools:
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/ucb; export PATH
if I get errors such as the one above, i try reversing the first two,
that is:
PATH=/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ucb; export PATH
I'm not sure whether this will help, but may be worth a shot.
