Very Computer

I've searched through the newsgroups looking for an already posted
solution and couldn't find one.

I'm trying to make Apache HTTPD 2.0.35 in Solaris 8 (sparc), using gcc
version 3.03. I'm getting the following error when make enters the
strings directory. Any help or advice would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks,
Jeff

I got past the "as" problem while compiling Apache HTTPD 2.0.35, but
then it blew up trying to build something else which was missing db.h
and had some invalid syntax in a .c module. I threw in the towel and
went with the older version of Apache.
