For me $(WORKDIR) expands to (work/solaris8-sparc/build-global) and
$(WORKSRC) expands to
(work/solaris8-sparc/build-global/gkrellm-2.3.4).  However GAR didn't
extract my source here.  GAR extracted my source in:

work/solaris8-sparc/build-isa-sparcv8/gkrellm-2.3.4

Notice build-isa-sparcv8 instead of build-global.  At the moment I
hacked this together and it works:

pre-configure-modulated:
        @cp $(FILEDIR)/Makefile $(WORKROOTDIR)/build-$(MODULATIONS)/$(GARNAME)-$
(GARVERSION)/Makefile
        @cp $(FILEDIR)/src.Makefile $(WORKROOTDIR)/build-$(MODULATIONS)/$(GARNAM
E)-$(GARVERSION)/src/Makefile
        @cp $(FILEDIR)/server.Makefile $(WORKROOTDIR)/build-$(MODULATIONS)/$(GAR
NAME)-$(GARVERSION)/server/Makefile


The full recipe is commited to GAR:

Thanks,
