Problem compiling MIT Kerberos 5 - 1.4.1 on Solaris...

[KernelPacket]

I have been trying unsuccessfully to build MIT Kerberos 5 - 1.4.1 on my
Solaris 8 box.
I have the latest Recommended patch cluster installed and I am using
GNU GCC/G++ 3.4.2
as my compiler. I am following the instructions that came with the
source tarball (i.e.
./configure, make, make install). The "configure" runs without error. I
receive the
following messages however when I attempt a "make":

rm -f libss.a
building static ss library
set -x; objlist=`set -x && perl -p -e '$e=$ARGV; $e =~ s/OBJS\...$//;
s/^/ /; s/ $//; s/ / $e/g;' OBJS.ST` && false cq libss.a $objlist
+ set -x
+ perl -p -e $e=$ARGV; $e =~ s/OBJS\...$//; s/^/ /; s/ $//; s/ / $e/g;
OBJS.ST
objlist= ss_err.o std_rqs.o invocation.o help.o execute_cmd.o listen.o

make[2]: *** [libss.a] Error 255

make[1]: *** [all-recurse] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/img/sanka/krb5-1.4.1/src/util'
make: *** [all-recurse] Error 1

Can anybody point in the right direction. I do not understand why it is
failing. I have also
tried to compile this on another Solaris machine (Sol 7) running the
Sun compiler instead
of GNU. I also tried replacing "make" (/usr/ccs/bin) with GNU "make".
Still no luck.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
