Hi,

 I hope this is to the right place now.

 I am trying to build emacs version 19.25 or 19.27 on a Sun Sparc 10
 opsys SUNOS4.1.3 running openwindows version 3, using cc or gcc.
 
 I get a link error when linking temacs that says it can't find
 __lib_version.  This is the error i am getting when i try to build
 temacs:
 
 ld: Undefined symbol
    __lib_version
 collect2: ld returned 2 exit status
 *** Error code 1

 I found the bit of code relating to this in the PROBLEMS file of the
 19.27 distribution of emacs, but it says to extract lib_version.o
 from libvim.a and that library is not on this system (or any other
 Sun I can find).  The note in PROBLEMS is:
 
   If you get the additional error that the linker could not find
   lib_version.o, try extracting it fromcontained in
   X11/usr/lib/X11/libvim.a in X11R4, then use it in the link.

 Is there another solution to this problem?  Can anyone tell me where
 I can get this lib_version.o file?
 
 Does anyone perchance have the name of the person who gave this
 solution of putting in the lib_version.o from x11r4 libvim.a?  This
 is a major problem for me.  Does anyone know what is calling
 lib_version?  I tried making a dummy file lib_version just to satisfy
 the linker, but then it produces an executable, but it fails with a
 segmentation fault.
 
 Thanks for any help.
