SUMMARY : postgresql6.3.2 installation problems under Solaris 2.6

Hi,

I solved my problems. If you get this error when you try to initialize
the database you should check the PGLIB environment variable. It should
refer to the right version.

Another tip : flex 2.5.4 and bison 1.25 should be installed. Without them
I got too many problems during configuration.

Another tip : You should use gcc instead of cc when installing under
solaris. gcc 2.8.1 works fine.
