emacs on solaris 9

emacs on solaris 9

[Brad Walker]

I'm having trouble compiling  emacs-21.1 on Solaris 9. It won't compile.
I get the following error message. The same thing happens when compiling
emacs-21.2

Any ideas..

Thanks.

I think this is already fixed for the next version, but for now
please try this patch:

*** src/s/sol2-5.h	22 Nov 2000 10:37:31 -0000	1.13
--- src/s/sol2-5.h	17 Apr 2002 18:00:03 -0000
