problems compiling/installing ncurses-5.2 on Solaris 8 (64bit)

[Osborn Sayers]

 Hi,
 How are you doing? My name is Osborn and I am having problems 
compiling/installing ncurses-5.2 on Solaris 8 w/64 bit kernel. Below I will 
describe briefly the environment that I am working in:

hardware: Sun Ultra 10 w/512Mb memory
compiler: gcc-2.95.3 w/libgcc-3.0.3 and glibc 1.2.10
other: gettext.0.11.2 and libiconv-1.8

Here is a snippet of where the compile breaks(seems to be during 
libncurses++.a):
make[1]: Entering directory `/export/home/osborn/ncurses-5.2/c++'

I have attached a copy of the config.cache...let me know what other info you 
need to investigate...I am 99% sure that I did not give enough...just let me 
know.


Thank you in advance for your help and insight,
Osborn
