Solaris Problem #1:
===================
From: carson@lehman.com
Date: Fri, 7 Feb 1997 01:05:58 -0500
To: arnold@gnu.ai.mit.edu
Subject: Solaris 2.5.1 x86 bug in gawk-3.0.2
awktab.c has the following bogus logic:
#ifndef alloca
#ifdef __GNUC__
#define alloca __builtin_alloca
#else /* not GNU C. */
#if (!defined (__STDC__) && defined (sparc)) || defined (__sparc__) || defined (__sparc) || defined (__sgi)
#include <alloca.h>
#else /* not sparc */
Solaris x86 obviously dosn't define sparc or __sparc.
What you _meant_ to say was:
if (defined(__sun) && defined(__SVR4))
(which identifies Solaris 2.x under both Sun's cc and gcc)

Solaris Problem #2:
===================
Tue Apr 13 16:57:45 IDT 1999
There is a known problem in that the `manyfiles' test will fail under
Solaris if you set your soft limit on the number of file descriptors to
above 256. This is due to a "feature" of fdopen that an fd must be
less than 256 (see fdopen(3)).
IMHO this is Sun's problem, not mine.

Dear Aharon:
Toda raba. Why don't you add something like that to README_d/README.solaris
file:
for the SunOS do in
/bin/sh: ulimit -n 256; ulimit -a; make test
/bin/tcsh: limit descriptors 256; ulimit -a; make test
otherwise "make test" will fail
Shalom, Paul
