[Expat-discuss] Problems compiling expat 1.95.8 on Solaris 8 platform

[John.Hockaday at ga.gov.au]

Hi,

I am having troubles compiling Expat 1.95.8 on a Solaris 8 platform using gcc
3.4.1.  If I configure with the following options:

./configure --prefix=/public/data/asddgate --enable-static

And "make" there are no compilation errors but if I do a "make check" I get
the following errors:

gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -fexceptions
-DHAVE_EX
PAT_CONFIG_H   -I./lib -I. -o tests/runtests.o -c tests/runtests.c

Expat version: expat_1.95.4
make: *** [check] Segmentation Fault (core dumped)

I noticed that the "configure" command couldn't find check.h.  This is
probably because check.h is in /public/data/asddgate/include/.  

I then configured using the following options:

CPPFLAGS="-I/public/data/asddgate/include" ./configure
--prefix=/public/data/asddgate --enable-static

And the configure command found check.h but when I did a make I got the
following errors:

make: *** [xmlwf/xmlwf.o] Error 1

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

I also noticed that the configure command couldn't find stdint.h. (checking
for stdint.h... no).  I can't find stdint.h anywhare on my system.  Could
this be the problem?

Thanks in advance for any reply.
