[Support #ZBZ-540988]: Problem setting up LDM 6.4.5 on Solaris 5.10

Greg,

> I am having trouble compiling LDM 6.4.5 on a Solaris 5.10 machine. It

It appears from the above that your gcc(1) compilation environment is 
incompatible with
the standard header-files of the SunOS 5.10 operating system.

The best solution would be to use the native SunOS C compiler instead of 
gcc(1), e.g.,

    $ make distclean
    $ ./configure CC=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/c89 ...

Alternatively, a re-installation of the gcc(1) compiler package might fix the 
problem.

Another alternative wold be to determine the root-cause of the problem by 
compiling the
above program manually, looking at the header-files, and determining if a C 
macro
can be defined that will fix the problem.

Steve Emmerson
