floating point compiling problems

[Malcolm Williamson]

Hi, all
I'm attempting to compile the floating point code for GRASS (GRASS4.2??), 
and I'm running into problems with the datetime lib. I believe that my 
first failure was with d.sites, which I then skipped, only to have it 
crash on g.region, which I obviously can't skip. I had applied the 
updates in fp_sites_datetime-3.tar.gz. My errors are as follows:
---------------

Any thoughts or suggestions? I'm compiling under Solaris2.3 on a 
SparcServer 690, using Sun's cc. TIA,
