Hello,
Hello.
I'm replying to this thread I found in the archive: http://www.cs.unipr.it/pipermail/ppl-devel/2009-August/015195.html since I was hit by the same error while trying to build PPL under Solaris 10/Sparc with gcc 4.5.1. It does not seem to be solved because in Version 0.11 of PPL the same error occurs nor could I find a solution, so I had to look myself. It turned out the the problem is related to sed. With Solaris' sed it does not work, but with GNU sed it works.
Your diagnosis is correct. We came to the same conclusion here:
https://www.cs.unipr.it/mantis/view.php?id=103
and added a README.solaris file recommending that GNU sed should be used in all cases.
Unfortunately, the sentence in README.solaris was a little ambiguous in mentioning the Java language interface, while the problem is affecting all interfaces. Hence, I just committed in a less ambiguous sentence:
http://www.cs.unipr.it/git/gitweb.cgi?p=ppl/ppl.git;a=commit;h=7f6f8d36f5f92...
Thanks anyway for reporting.

So it does not seem to be related to autoreconf, perl, m4 or awk. Unfortunately I was not able to find out which sed command behaves differently. Maybe it would be a good idea to search for and use GNU sed in configure.

Peter
