Probably needs to remove some bashisms first. Did you have any problems
using Solaris's stock sh?

Does Solaris come with cpio? If so maybe we can do a check for the proper
command line on both of these in configure.in. Maybe there is one common
way to make it work on both so there is no compile/runtime problems when
switching between the two.

Blame GNU gettext. The Makefile.in.in comes directly from the gettext
source and gets overwritten whenever you do gettextize I think.
