 I can't really tell. Recently, I was able to sync the source tree only 
 in larger intervals, as I had several other problems building on Solaris.
 
 But the problem seems to originate upstream. It is mentioned several 
 times in the original source files, that the examples directory should 
 not be build by default, and yet exactly this happens. BTW: Because of 
 this, I would not categorize this as Solaris problem. The problem just 
 happens to strike on Solaris, but it has the potential to cause failure 
 on other platforms as well.
