	Configure has been a pain in the butt for me so I thought I'd
	pass my experiences along.

	1) Add /usr/ccs/bin to the PATH declaration.
	2) Add /usr/ccs/lib to the lib search path.
	3) Change the search for libc.so.1 so that it fails, this doesn't
	   define everything libc.a does.
	4) Add the -p option to the nm that scans libc.a so that the
	   sed script can properly parse nm output.

	   These 4 changes have basically made most of the sources that use
	   Configure set up properly.
