Am I correct in understanding that you modified the configure script to
use '/usr/ccs/bin/ar' instead of 'ar'?  Change it back and then change
your path to include '/usr/ccs/bin'.  For configure to work, it will
need to be able to find several other programs in '/usr/ccs/bin'. I have
built bind on Solaris with no problems, but my path includes '/usr/ccs/bin'.
