glib-2.16.3 fails 'make check' with SunStudio12

[Willi Burmeister <wib cs uni-kiel de>]

Hi,

I'm trying to compile glib-2.16.3 with SunStudio12 on my Solaris 10
SPARC and x86 systems. After changing some defines as mentioned in

  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=504176

everything compiles without error. But 'make check' failed:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
make  check-recursive

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm unsure about this error message. Maybe someone on this list is
able to explained what's going wrong here.

A 'make -k check' shows some more errors:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
** ERROR:(testing.c:72):???: stderr of child process (4465) failed to match: *ERROR*test_fork_fail*should not be reached*

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Compiling glib with gcc gives no error at all.

Any help is appreciated

Thanks

Willi

P.S. here the script i'm using to compile glib

----------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/ksh

export CC=cc
export CXX=CC
export F77=f77

export PKG_CONFIG=/usr/local/bin/pkg-config
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=""

export "PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SunStudio12/bin:."

cd glib-2.16.3

./configure --prefix=/opt/gnu 2>&1 | tee wib-conf.log

make 2>&1 | tee wib-make.log

make check 2>&1 | tee wib-check.log
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Suns pkg-config is too old, so I need to use my own version
