That was one suggestion I made when we talked about it last. Sounds
like it's probably the right approach to whitelist the platforms we
know are broken without it. I'm running a test on SF's compile farm
Solaris machine now.

That's what I'm trying.

I'll try OSX momentarily.

But maybe not. If you install any modern BerkeleyDB from source it
always sticks it in a non-standard location. Hmm, maybe a blacklist
is more useful for this one? Jeez this stuff sucks.
GvR> Skip, can you cook up patches there? (The 2.2.2

Right, sorry, I'll do that if Guido's changes pans out for Solaris,
Linux, and OSX.
(Side note: I think I will have a few more minor patches for the email
package, which I'll try to get into 2.2.2 tonight, if my cold will lay
low for a few hours.)
