OK, now that configure has been updated in CVS, I successfully built
emacs from CVS sources on my Solaris 2.8 system here at work (without
the sol2-8.h file.  Thank you..

I notice that configure.in has been updated in the CVS repository
again today, however. As a general rule, shouldn't configure always be
updated whenever configure.in gets updated?

Thanks,
