I don't know solaris that well but .. are you using a solaris shell or GNU bash ? Maybe there's a problem with long parameters ... ?

Using tcsh, and bash... it's a little strange i've never seen that error before.

and i just tried solaris's sh shell also, which no avail.

Problem with the shells maybe?

I have tried the latest CVS (freshly updated at 2002-05-23, 17:50pm PST) in Solaris 2.8, using csh, tcsh, bash (2.03) and in all I also got the same problem.

% uname -a
SunOS redox 5.8 Generic_108528-07 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-100

% gcc --version
3.0.2

% make --version
GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.

Also, I used the configuration:

./configure --prefix=/export/dredox1/devel_server/php \
--with-config-file-path=/export/dredox1/devel_server/php \
--enable-track-vars --enable-magic-quotes \

--with-t1lib=/asd/metallo1/server/libs/t1 \

--with-mysql=/export/dredox1/devel_server/mysql

and the make lines where the problem happens are at the end (they are HUGE).

I even tried "/bin/bash libtool ..." w/o success

Here are the lines:

make: *** [php] Error 1

Problem is that Solaris 8 sed is badly broken (tnxs to Rasmus's comment on #php).

Just do:

# rm /bin/sed /bin/broken_sed
# cp /opt/sfw/bin/gsed /bin/sed

Assuming you had installed the extra Gnu CD from the Solaris 8 set. That should do it.

OOPS, I meant:

# mv /bin/sed /bin/broken_sed

Although you might as well get rid of that broken sed

Could "configure" check for a broken sed on Solaris? It would be very helpful.
I tried PHP 4 CVS, and ran into the same problem today :-(

GNU sed solved my problems, too.

There is a check now in configure..forgot to add comment about it when I added it. It will bail out if the sed found in PATH does not work.

Sniper says there is a check in configure now... 
It does not seem to be there as configure gives no warning about the
broken sed in Solaris...and my make just failed due to this.  I am trying to install 4.3.0.  Please
revisit the configure check for the broken sed...  Also, if a comment about the broken sed could be put into the Solaris 8 documentation as well it would save folks a lot of time and heartburn.  Thx.

The error msg comes from Sun's sed.  Apply Sun patches
110165 (sparc) or 110166 (x86) to fix sed.
Unfortunately these patches are only available to those with a support contract.
