[OpenPKG #221] gv build fails on Solaris

Sun's "xmkmf" tool assumes that the proprietary Sun linker is being used, so it generates Makefile's with
many proprietary switches (in particular, it liberally uses the "-Xc" option, which GNU binutils don't understand).

Unfortunately, the Sun "xmkmf" also ignores environment variables like "HasGcc" that other platforms
use to tune link flags.

There are a couple of ways around this that come to mind: 

(1) manually editing the generated Makefiles to get rid of the offending linker switches. e.g.,

...
    #   generate Makefiles and build gv
    xmkmf -a
    case "%{l_target}" in 
        *solaris* )
            for mkfile in `find . -name Makefile` ; do

_________________________________________________________________________

It is currently too easy to stumble over ones feets by just trying to
compile the openpkg*.src.rpm with a plain RedHat/SuSE/whatever vendor
RPM as seen on

http://studio.imagemagick.org/pipermail/magick-developers/2002-May/000533.html

All OpenPKG packages require "OpenPKG, openpkg >= YYYYMMDD", so they
are safe in this situation. But the bootstrap contains obviously
no depdendencies at all. Perhaps it should depend on itself. On
bootstrapping via .src.sh, it should not matter, because the .spec's
headers are ignored. And once it is installed, there is an "openpkg"
package. Voila!

_________________________________________________________________________

X11 based programs do not consistently build for a variety of reasons. Fix this by building a better X11
package, and providing hooks to the real X11 subsystem.

  o gv/xmkmf picks up shinola from macros not under OpenPKG control
  o qt picks up strange XFree86 stuff (GL), but not with other X11 servers
  o xaw3d, xfig, and xpm also have xmkmf/Imake troubles

Hello Matt,

First, you are right about the inconsistencies and there is a ticket that
describes the considerations

  https://rt.openpkg.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=104

Do the problems you noticed with gv actually cause the build to break, or just
spew warning or '-Xc not understood' messages?  Last time I built gv on
Solaris it worked, but I'm not sure if I had binutils installed.

This is an old issue and was deferred until the latest release was sent
out. We should try to circumvent this nasty tcl/expect issue in the
future.

There appears to be a dependency loop between expect and tcl.

Building the changes from yesterday, the tcl install failed saying:

Not exactly a loop.

expect _embeds_ tcl because it requires part of the tcl build
environment that is not available even when you have installed
the tcl package.

However, it must embed exactly the same tcl version that you
have installed to prevent run-time conflicts.

In rc-scripts it is possible to test a variable via opServiceEnabled in order to
avoid running a section when the service is actually not enabled.

A closer look reveals that in almost all cases this mechanism is needed in most
sections. Therefore I suggest to make it the default behaviour giving the
