Hi,

My last report not only left out the version
of automake I was running the check on (It
was automake 1.5), but it looks like the only
important thing was the uname output (which is
SunOS bevis.fsl.noaa.gov 5.8 Generic_108528-11 sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-20)
and the fact that the test builtin for /bin/sh
does not work properly for ``-e''.  For example,

    /bin/sh -c 'test -e /tmp'

gives

    /bin/sh: test: argument expected

I get the same if I try

    /bin/sh -c '[ -e /tmp ]'

Maybe automake or autoconf should try to find
/usr/xpg4/bin/sh on Solaris systems and just
use that instead of /bin/sh.

Sorry about the last report,
Richard Ryan
