<p class=MsoNormal>When trying to build Cyrus IMAP v2.3.10 on a Solaris 9 system,
I get the following error:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So the configure script finds that pcreposix.h is unusable,
but uses it anyway.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The build works fine on a different Solaris 9 system that
doesn’t have pcre installed. Is there a fix for this problem,
preferable one that doesn’t involve hacking code? Is there a config
option to pretend pcreposix.h doesn’t exist?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks, Larry<o:p></o:p></p>
