The old trunk image used cmake. Opensmalltalk uses autoconf.

The configure script is autogenerated by Gnu Autoconf from configure.ac 
for gnu toolchain. You may need to generate one for Solaris C toolchain 
starting with autoscan to generate a configure.ac and then using 
autoconf to get configure.

This eliminates many other warning flags :-(

HTH .. Subbu
