cyrus-sasl-2.1.25 compile problems on Solaris 11.1 x86

[Jerry K]

Hello Carson,

Thank you for your reply.

I wasn't even sure where to hunt for a 4.x version.  They have been on 
the 5.x version train for some time.  Anyway, I ended up editing the (3) 
files you mentioned.

utils/dbconverter-2.c
sasldb/db_berkeley.c
sasldb/Makefile.am

That got me a lot further!

It looks like I successfully made all in sasldb, plugins and lib 
subdirectories.

Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to get all the way through.  Output at 
bottom of email.

It looks looks like a problem with "gethostname"

Again, additional comments are appreciated.

Jerry
