Hi,


I tested the OpenAFS 1.8.16 build on Omnios (omnios-r151054-ab7586f705)  
- here are the results:


* Build fails still on aklog.c / klog.c because of the missing fix 
(change 16670) :

https://gerrit.openafs.org/#/c/16670/1

After applying both patches to aklog.c / klog.c manual, the build is 
successful.


* I had to disable swig  '--with-swig=no ' , else the build also fails. 
So I used the following configure:

# configure
AS=/afs/unixnews.ch/@sys/solarisstudio12.3/bin/sunas \
     CC=/afs/unixnews.ch/@sys/solarisstudio12.3/bin/suncc \
     SOLARISCC=/afs/unixnews.ch/@sys/solarisstudio12.3/bin/suncc \
     CFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath=/opt/openafs/lib " \
     ./configure --prefix=/opt/openafs --with-afs-sysname=sunx86_511 
--enable-namei-fileserver --disable-optimize-kernel --with-swig=no


For me it's working like this and my cell is beeing updated.

Thanks and best regards and enjoy the upcoming summer vacation ;)
