You must be using Solaris make.  Solaris make doesn't know anything
about static rules.  You'll have to get a copy of GNU make and install
it on your Solaris box and use that instead.  You can get the buildable
source from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/make.  If you don't want to compile it
yourself, try http://sunfreeware.com/.


You can run "make --version" to be sure; if it gives you an error or
doesn't say GNU make, you're not using the right one.
