Compile 4.3.0-beta2 Solaris 8

Hi,

Had the same problem just a couple of days ago.
It seems that xymon is using a variable S_NONE that is already declared in signal.h.
I just comented the S_NONE in signal.h (that is /usr/include/sys/signal.h )
On Solaris 9 though but it should work on 8 as well.
Compiling went ok, I then removed the comment in signal.h.

I had sun's studio compiler installed as well and had to make sure PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH
pointed to /usr/local first, so it used the correct gcc and gmake.
/usr/ccs/bin has to be in the path so Makefile can find ar.

The correct fix would be to change all S_NONE to something else in the xymon code.

I try with the 4.2.3 version (non beta) and compile perfectly (in solaris 8)...
I try to compile 4.3.0-beta2 in solaris 10 and works fine !

Anybody have an idea where is the problem, I need to compile the latest version of xymon?

Thanks a lot friends !
