postgres 8 on solaris 9

Hi

I need to run latest Pg, i.e. 8.x, on a solaris 9 sparc machine, does
anybody know of any prepackaged pg for that or any documentation that
discusses compiling the source on such a machine. The Sun site only
discusses how to do this in solaris 10.

Pointers would be much appreciated.

regards

thomas

If you have a C compiler on the machine, the standard
configure/make/make install should work fine.
