1.2.3pre2 works great on Solaris 2.7 except man

Right out of the box (after I made Damien's LDFLAGS fix in configure) using
gcc-2.95.2. The only problem I have now is the man pages. I still can't
read them using Solaris nroff, and when I tried to build with
--with-catman=cat, I got the following during a make install:

/rtr/bin/install -c -m 644 ssh.[01].out /usr/local/man/cat1/ssh.1
Try `/rtr/bin/install --help' for more information.

Strange - it seems to work OK for me. Is that GNU install in
/rtr/bin/install?

You could try to work around it using

make INSTALL=`pwd`/install-sh install

-d

Nope:

/rtr/bin/install:
SunOS 5.5 Generic November 1995

You can work around the incompatibility by using

make install INSTALL=`pwd`/install-sh

-d
