[gnu.emacs.bug] Cannot link 18.52 on Sun 3 or Sun 4

pinsky@CIS.OHIO-STATE.EDU (Seth Pinsky) (12/29/88)

I have successfully built previous versions of emacs on several
machines but cannot get past the error shown below after doing
the following:

1.  Received emacs distribution on Sun cartridge tape (Invoice
1124).

2. tar xvf /dev/rst8 emacs-18.52 

3. edit build-install to point to appropriate locations

4. On sun 4 edit config.h for m-sparc.h and s-bsd4.2-h (machine
running SunOS 3.2

5. On Sun 3 edit config.h for m-sun3.h and s-sunos4.h (machine
running SunOS 4.0)

6. Run build-install

7. Note:  the Sun 4 had previously built and run version 18.50
also from a tape sent from FSF

8. Below is the error message produced from build-install:

I've looked around for the appropriate library functions but
can't find them.  Sure would be grateful for any help you can
provide. 

Thanks!
