Dear all,

I just changed from linux to a solaris server and I'm having trouble
building R from source. I can't use the binaries because I don't have a
permission to write to /usr/local.
I followed the online instructions regarding the configuration with readline
and the GNU version of iconv:

./configure --prefix=/u/fox/binaries
CPPFLAGS='-I/u/fox/binaries/libiconv-1.10/include'
LDFLAGS='-L/u/fox/binaries/readline-5.2 -L/u/fox/binaries/libiconv-1.10/lib'

After configuration I get the following:

#################################################

But I can't understand the error after trying to make:

Does anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks,
