This is baffling ... because I was following your notes from a build
last week. Where we did use the LIBS and the new fangled LDOPTX thing.

Regardless ... this should just build with bone stock Solaris 10.
However this is the wrong compiler. In my opinion. I have the Sun Studio
stuff around somewhere as well as the Java JDK that it needs. More work
than I care to do on a Monday morning sorting that out :)
