sparc solaris 7 & file-3.28

[tom]

Hello, 
I ran across this message while compiling mysql v3.22.32 on a SPARC box 
running Solaris 7.  

I'm running file-3.28 by Ian F. Darwin.


checking command to parse /usr/ccs/bin/nm -p output... ok
checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate
checking for /usr/ccs/bin/ld option to reload object files... -r
checking dynamic linker characteristics... solaris2.7 ld.so
checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes

*** Warning: the command libtool uses to detect shared libraries,
*** /usr/bin/file, produces output that libtool cannot recognize.
*** The result is that libtool may fail to recognize shared libraries
*** as such.  This will affect the creation of libtool libraries that
*** depend on shared libraries, but programs linked with such libtool
*** libraries will work regardless of this problem.  Nevertheless, you
*** may want to report the problem to your system manager and/or to
*** address@hidden

checking whether to build shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build static libraries... no
