System: Solaris 2.3, with gcc 2.6.0, libg++ 2.6.0, Gnu make 3.71,
SUNpro compiler fortran 3.0.1    

Problems:
1. The build script could not work out the Fortran libraries correctly
from the output of f77 -v. The SUNpro compilers set the link path using 
the ld option -Y P,/opt/SUNWspro/lib:/opt/SUNWspro/SC3.0.1/lib:/usr/ccs/lib:/usr/lib instead of a -L option. Using -Y P,... _overrides_ the default search
path.

2. After hardwiring the libraries, the build failed when compiling ColVector.cc
making all in liboctave

3. The make doesn't abort after this error.
