PHP 4.0 Bug #9528: /home/sas/src/php4/ext/standard/url_scanner_ex.re ... permission denied

From: rick@neighborhoodusa.com Operating system: Solaris 2.6 PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: Compile Failure Bug description: /home/sas/src/php4/ext/standard/url_scanner_ex.re ... permission denied the following is the second line of the file [path-to-php]/ext/standard/url_scanner_ex.c : #line 1 "/home/sas/src/php4/ext/standard/url_scanner_ex.re" the line above and below are comments, and are remarked correctly for a c program with /* and */ unfortunately, the gcc compiler tries to interpret the offending line that begins with a shell script comment symbol and pukes upon the encounter. I'm not a programmer, but when I added the correct comments around the text and ran make install again, it finished neatly and without incident.
