I'm not sure if this made it to the mailing list, I have not seen
it come back yet, but it may help others.
A problem exists in Solaris 2.3/2.4 which prevents the java source
from making cleanly. During the process the following error message
will appear
ksh was not found in /bin/../bin/sparc/ksh
This message is produced by the java_wrapper script in response
to it's $0 argument having been set to /bin/ksh.
The problem can be fixed by changing the permissions of gnumake to
REMOVE the setgid bit.
I raised this issue with SunSoft in the UK who tell me it has
already been fixed in Solaris 2.5. They also added that it is
unlikely to be fixed in Solaris 2.3 and 2.4.
