[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54235] problems building Octave on Solaris

[Michele]

Follow-up Comment #53, bug #54235 (project octave):

OK, using your 4.0.0x directory I got:

I hit this before (see comment 12 below) and it was fixed by comment 20,
though on rereading that I can't see how that happened.  All my gcc tools are
4.9.2 now.  Something I did between there and now must have broken it again.
