I'm trying to build 2.5 B2 on a new Soalri 10 AMD 64 machine. It's dying
with an error in one of the Makefiles. I tried gmake as well as the Sun
sipplied makke, and both have pretty much the same error. here's the end of
a build with the Soalris make:

Making all in man
make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 578: Extra `:', `::', or `:=' on

The following command caused the error:

done; \

list='config  common-src    client-src dumper-src      recover-src    man docs

  echo "Making $target in $subdir"; \
  if test "$subdir" = "."; then \

  (cd $subdir && make  $local_target) \
  || eval $failcom; \
done; \
if test "$dot_seen" = "no"; then \
  make  "$target-am" || exit 1; \
fi; test -z "$fail"
