i thought i had fixed all of the ABI_ROOT problems in the makefiles,
so i'm curious what you needed to change in the expat makefile ??
you should be able to just cd to abi-0.7.1 and type make and it
will take care of building expat with the proper ABI_ROOT set.

it's probably our problem since we're using the code, but
redid the makefiles to fit our needs. this looks like a
problem with the CC command line. could you cd to /opt/expat/gennmtab
and do a 'make ABI_ROOT=/opt/abi-0.7.1 -n' and see what it's
trying to do. [BTW, the various CC, AR, and etc variables are set
in abi/src/config/platforms/sunos.mk -- you may have to adjust them
for your system.]
hope this helps
