Hi,

I'm still not getting anywhere with this.

I don't think so. 
I had problems with configure last time (various files like config.sub
were missing), 
so I think I copied "configure" from a previous version to get it to
work.

I have gcc on my development box but I don't want to use it - all the
applications that use freetds are compiled with the SUN workshop cc
compiler, so I want to use that to compile freetds as well.
Traditionally, the way I found to force configure to use the SUN
workshop C compiler is to set the $CC environment variable before
invoking configure, e.g. 

$ setenv CC /apps/dev/tools/sun5/SUNWspro/bin/cc
$ ./configure --prefix= ....

This always worked before, and in terms of compilation still works.
Is there another way to achieve this end ?

Bill

It seems I upgraded libtool on March 27.  Have you not built the
snapshot since?  

You're using /usr/ccs/bin/ld, but -Wl is Posix for "dear compiler,
please forward this argument to the linker".  Frediano's right, libtool
generated this incorrect command string.  What compiler+linker do you
mean to use, and is it being selected correctly by the configure script?
