Hello,
Could someone with a Solaris 8 x86 machine please try a build using a
current GDB snapshot and report back the results.

Is the Solaris 8 x86 problem fixed? When you configure it, configure
incorrectly determines that I have no curses.h. This causes mucho
compilation errors later on.
Simply editing the config.h to define CURSES_H fixes the problem, and
then the build works fine.
The status for this problem:
Solaris 8 x86 (PIII-560)
gcc 2.95.2
I had the same problem with several of the snapshots shortly before
5.0 became official, and 5.0 has the same problem.
I sent some mail in about it long ago, and never saw a reply.
I haven't had time to figure it out myself, especially since I get all
confused trying to figure out what configure does, I was happy to find
the workaround.
Mike
