Sorry Peter, you screwed it up. You reset CFLAGS in your Makefile
of clamav. The default is v8+ and the CFLAGS are set in GAR to v8.
  You should have better just reset OPT_FLAGS_SOS11_sparc and
the equivalent flags. Being least-invasive here is quite important.

Phil, this would be nice to catch in checkpkg.


Best regards
