I've experienced a couple of problems while compiling on sparc 
solaris...

- version of automake/aclocal

  the /opt/local/tex/TeX/utils/texinfo/configure states:
    am__api_version="1.6"
    ACLOCAL=${ACLOCAL-"${am_missing_run}"aclocal-${am__api_version}""}
    AUTOMAKE=${AUTOMAKE-"${am_missing_run}"automake-${am__api_version}""}
  
  my version is 6.1.1. (workaround: compile these without am__api_version)

- Makefiles needing ctangle which isn't there:
    TeX/texk/cjkutils/hbf2gf/Makefile.in
    TeX/texk/web2c/tiedir/Makefile.cweb

  (for the latter, I think workaround was 'touch tiedir/tie.c')

- compilation of epstopdf.c fails:

    gcc -g -O2     epstopdf.c  ../kpathsea/libkpathsea.la    -o epstopdf
    epstopdf.c: In function `main':
    epstopdf.c:474: `O_BINARY' undeclared (first use in this function)

pas to this one. anyone has a suggestion?
