Rsync2.5.3

[Jennifer Lu]

Hi,

I tried to compile rsync2.5.3 on my Solaris5.5.1 and Solaris5.8
machines, I got the following errors:

On Solaris5.5.1, I got:

gunbelt# ./configure
configure: loading cache /dev/null
configure: Configuring rsync 2.5.3
checking build system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1
checking host system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1
checking target system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1
checking for gcc... /import/datools/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc
checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot 
create executables


On Solaris5.8, configure was completed, when tried to make, it failed with
the messages:

Can you please help me?
