According to Marshall, Simon on 2/15/2008 4:01 AM:
| Hi, I tried to ./configure && make tar-1.19 on solaris-2.8 with
| gcc-2.4.3, but found lib/strerror.c would not compile without manually
| #defining CHAR_BIT to 8 in config.h (I found the definition in
| /usr/include/iso/limits_iso.h).  It built and ran fine after that.

Thanks for the report.  However, this issue was reported several months
ago, and fixed in CVS at that time.  And you're the second person to
report it this month alone.

Disclaimers like this are meaningless when posting to publicly archived
mailing lists.  It is considered bad netiquette to send mails to public
lists when your employer adds such disclaimers, and some people refuse to
reply to it on principle.  It may be worth using a free webmail account
when making public posts.
