Hi Steve, sorry for the slow reply, I was travelling in a land of unusable
keyboards.

I do get occasional emails about people having trouble with transient DNS
failures and oonumerics, I'm not sure if it is just a general problem with
DNS databases or somehow our fault.
My current desktop machine is a sunray.. let me see.
You're right that the configure script doesn't currently have an option
for the Sun compiler. Plain "./configure" assumes you are using an SGI
compiler (which also uses the name "CC").
Here's what I tried:
(1) ran configure; this produced blitz/config.h
(2) mkdir blitz/sun; mv blitz/config.h blitz/sun/bzconfig.h
(3) added

to blitz/bzconfig.h
This unfortunately does not work, because the configure script produces
preprocessor symbols like "HAVE_TEMPLATES" instead of "BZ_HAVE_TEMPLATES".
The install/compiler selection stuff has been rewritten since I used to
work actively on blitz, so at this point I have to give up and ask Julian
what I'm doing wrong... he is much more up on this stuff than I am.
Best,
Todd
