SUN 8.0 CC compiler / solaris 5.8

Hi,
I use solaris 5.8. Today they changed the default compiler from (I believe) CC version 6.2 to 8.0a. Afterwards I could no longer link to the root libraries (using 6.2) .

When trying to use 8.0 I get:

gmake sub_anal5
CC -O -KPIC -I/bld/kwd1/root/3.10/root/include -c -o sub_anal5.o sub_anal5.C
CC -O sub_anal5.o -L/bld/kwd1/root/3.10/root/lib -lCore -lCint -lHist -lGraf -lGraf3d -lGpad -lTree -lRint -lPostscript -lMatrix -lPhysics -lm -ldl -lnsl -lsocket -L/bld/kwd1/root/3.10/root/lib -lCore -lCint -lHist -lGraf -lGraf3d -lGpad -lTree -lRint -lPostscript -lMatrix -lPhysics -lGui -lm -ldl -lnsl -lsocket
-o sub_anal5

ld: fatal: Flags processing errors
make: *** [sub_anal5] Error 1

The Makefile is attached.

Anyway, I just wanted to make sure, it looks like there is no 8.0 version of
a downloadable binary.

I tried compiling the source and ran into the same ld error:

Ken,

We do not have access to this new compiler. If you make the port
start from the CVS version and not from version 3.10.
