Hi Andreas,

There is some documentation in:

http://www.nongnu.org/gm2/gm2.html
   2.8 Building GNU Modula-2 under Mac OSX 

as it is a little hidden I'll provide a link to this on the main
webpage.

Also John could you email me your Solaris configure and I'll add this
to the documentation as well?

regards,
Gaius
