Jeremy Katz's notes on how to port Tao to Solaris

In libtao/TaoInstrument.cc, there are some math functions that don't seem
to exist for Solaris 7.  These are powf(), floorf(), and log10f().  I
replaced them with the equivalent functions that take doubles, not floats.

The OpenGL support comes from Mesa (www.mesa3d.org).  Glut can be found at
www.opengl.org/developers/documentation/glut.html.  Libaudiofile is from
www.68k.org/~michael/audiofile/. Mesa and Audiofile use autoconf, so all
you really need to do is configure;make;make install;.  Glut requires you
to run a script, mkmkfiles.imake.  This generates/renames the
makefiles.  It's install rule might not work.  I had to manually copy
libglut.a and the header files under include/GL/.
Then to build tao, it's back to the autoconf method.

The tao script itself needed one change, and a second one is needed if you
use absolute paths to specify the input file.  At or around line 73, there
is: "if test -e ${1}.exe;", which I had to change to "if test -f ${1}.exe;"
At line 107, I also changed "exec ./${1}.exe -g;" to "exec ${1}.exe -g;".

If your environment is rather non-standard, like mine, you might need to
explicitly name library locations in tao's configure script.  I suggest
using GNU make and the GNU C++ compiler.  There are probably other GNU
tools that should be used.
