[Gdal-dev] building gdal on solaris

[Peter.Rushforth at statcan.ca]

Thanks for your help. I ran configure --without-static, which
successfully got past the ar error ( I did add /usr/ccs/bin
where ar is to see if that did anything, but I still got the
error).  Anyhow, now I have a problem with an empty BINDINGS
variable set in GDALmake.opt, which causes the following failure:

I will try --without-libtool as you suggested.
