Thread: error compiling 7.1 on Solaris 8 x86 (long)

When i try to compile postgresql on solaris 8/ x86
i get following:

It looks like gcc is finding a broken "math.h" include file - check if you
have proper C library headers installed.

HTH,

Very curious.  Seems like something is badly broken with your <math.h>
... all that stuff should be declared in math.h, which is certainly
imported by float.c.  Any Solaris folk have an idea what might have
gone wrong?
