Do you have working shared library support in the Imake config
files?
As far as I can tell, it's doubtful that the stuff in /source/config
works. Sometimes it uses _s and sometimes it uses SHLIBEXT, when it
should use the latter all the time, I believe. Also, it uses the
MKSHLIB variable, but doesn't appear to define it anywhere. Also,
there's no rule in Imake.rules for building a shared library instead
of a static library.
I'd like to build shared libraries on the Sun here at UCSC, so if
you don't have it working yet, I'll probably work on it a bit myself,
but I don't want to do that until I hear from you about it.
