There's the problem -- it's running the program "false", which will  
always give an error.  At this point, normally it would be running  
the program "ar", but apparently the configure script didn't find it  
for some reason.  Presumably that means either certain software  
development tools aren't installed, or $PATH isn't set to include  
them.  (We should probably have the configure script fail, rather  
than producing a makefile that will fail at build time.)

Check to see if /usr/ccs/bin is in $PATH, that's where Sun's tools  
would normally live.
