Summary:  pnetlib-0.6.4 configure script fails on Solaris 2.8

Original Submission:  I get the following error message with the configure 
script of pnetlib-0.6.4 on Solaris 2.8:

./configure: test: argument expected

After some investigation, I found out that the script is using 'test -e' 
statement which is not supported on Solaris. In the doc of autoconf 

(see http://www.mcc.ac.uk/gnu/Manuals/autoconf/html_chapter/autoconf_10.html)

it is advised to replace all 'test -e' statements by 'test -f' for portability 
which is what I did and now the script is working successfuly.

(first time I report a bug, hope it's OK like that).
