Solaris includes a strftime() function. It seems that the test for
strftime in ./configure of hylafax is bogus.
int t() { strftime(); return 0; }
int main(){ t(); return 0; }
Koef suggested to comment out the test for strftime what I did. I had a
similar problem with the TIFF library,so I comemnted this test out as
well and then was able to build hylafax on Solaris 9 with ggcc 3.4.x.
It was reported that these problems do not occur with gcc.3.x. However,
I haven't verified that.
Thanks a lot!
