[csw-maintainers] zlibCompileFlags symbol missing on sparcv9

[Maciej (Matchek) Blizinski]

Before I invest larger chunks of time in debugging this issue, I'm
going to ask here. I'm trying to compile MySQL 5 on build8s, and I'm
getting an error during the configure phase.  It only happens with the
sparcv9 modulation.

configure:21806: checking for zlib compression library
configure:21974: /opt/studio/SOS11/SUNWspro/bin/cc -o conftest -xO3
-xarch=v9 -mt -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L -D__EXTENSIONS__

zlibCompileFlags                    conftest.o
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to conftest

Has anyone run into this problem before? Any ideas why does it work
fine on sparcv8, but not on sparcv9?

If anyone wants to reproduce it:
svn co https://gar.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gar/csw/mgar/pkg/mysql5/branches/mysql-5.0.x/
cd mysql-5.0.x
gmake package
