Sorry, meant to get back to this earlier but have been
super busy...

Maybe this could be added to "configure.ac":

AC_SEARCH_LIBS([floor], [m])

That will add an "-lm" to the linker line, making
solaris happy and hopefully not unduly affecting
anything else. It looks like on other platforms libm
is  automatically pulled in from libstdc++.

I just tried this on Solaris, FreeBSD, and Fedora 4,
and it seemed to work ok.


Thanks, Darby
