Subject: Building pine on Solaris 2.4

I need to customize and rebuild Pine, to run on a SparcStation with
Solaris 2.4. Doing a 'build sol' is a no-go; pico and imap build fine, 
but pine bombs out. Closer inspection of the makefiles and the osdep/os-*
files shows that they're for Solaris 2.2.

Would some kind soul have a set of customized makefile.sol and osdep/*
files willing to share ? 

TIA for your help !

I've installed pine3.91 under solaris 2.4 with minimum trouble. The only 
problem was thast I have not the Sun C compiler (pretty costly stuff) and 
I had to use gcc, while the Makefiles are set up for "cc". My solution 
was to dig into individual makefiles and find where the CC macro was 
defined (usually you'll find a commented definition for gcc and you've 
just to uncomment it). Unfortunately I didn't keep the modified makefile 
(but that's because I judged that the modification was very little and 
could be done again very quickly).

Cheers,
