Summary: Complains I am not using GNU make

System Configuration
--------------------
  Operating System   : Solaris 7 on Intel

  PostgreSQL version : 6.4.2

  Compiler used      : gcc 2.8.1

Hardware:
---------
SunOS Homer 5.7 Generic_106542-02 i86pc i386 i86pc
Pentium @ 240Mhz, 64Mb RAM

Versions of other tools:
------------------------
GNU Make 3.77

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem Description:
--------------------
Follow install instructions then try to run gmake - it is in my /usr/local as make, but make -v reports GNU Make
version3.77.  Typing "make all" causes Postgres to tell me that I must use GNU Make. Renaming it to gmake and running
./configuredoesn't get rid of the error. Using the documented make all >& make.log & produces a message "make.log: bad
number".No make.log file seems to exist. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Test Case:
----------
Described above. The answer may be simple, but i am a Unix newbie.

Solution:
---------
