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.

Output from config for ld and libtool:
checking whether the linker (/usr/ccs/bin/ld) supports shared 
libraries... yes
checking command to parse /usr/local/bin/nm -B output... ok
checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate
checking for /usr/ccs/bin/ld option to reload object files... -r
checking dynamic linker characteristics... no
checking if libtool supports shared libraries... no
checking whether to build shared libraries... no
checking whether to build static libraries... yes
checking for objdir... .libs
creating libtool
