Yep.  I have it working.  I built it using gcc (2.3.2 or some such, it
was a few revisions ago).  What I did was to add in some of the 18.59
stuff that made emacs work under Solaris.  Unfortunately I didn't save
the original files, so I can't make patches.  But what I did was to
make the changed files available anonymous ftp from
thumper.bellcore.com in pub/dana/epoch.patch.tar.z.  The files I
touched were:
	config/s-usg5-4.h config/s-sol2.h emacs.c fileio.c process.c
	getpagesize.h ymakefile paths.h

If someone could make a proper diff file, it would be appreciated.

   We managed to compile epoch 4.2 here under Solaris 2.1 after some
   difficulties (gcc did not run through, only the SUN compiler, after

I compiled it on Solaris 2.1 (for both SPARC and x386) with little
difficulty.  Perhaps something that you changed while struggling with
gcc is causing a problem?

Here's my config.h file for Solaris 2.1 SPARC.
