I have checked that. And I have renamed 
/usr/ucb/test
to
/usr/ucb/test_old

.. but above problem is still there.

The "-ot" test occurs from
html/Gmakefile:

if [ ! -f $$f -o $$f -ot $$h ]

So "test" is not called directly. How can we fix this?

My path settings are on Solaris:
PATH=.:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/SC3.0.1/bin:/usr/ucb:/export/home/gnu/bin:/data/sara-neu:/export/home/OPT/comm/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/local/netpbm

Regards

 Markus
