Compiling to shared libraries

[Göran Höglund]

Well I have,
root at apollo:/> echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/lib/courier/bin:/usr/ucb:/sbin: 
  \ 
/etc:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/dt/bin:/usr/lib/courier/bin:/usr/lib/courier/sbin

I have also made a soft link from /usr/ccs/bin/ld to /usr/local/bin/ld 
as mentiond below to shortcut sun's ld infavor of GNU.
The output of ./configure says that ld supports share libraries but not 
libtol.
