configure php solaris with openssl

Hi, I am having a issue with configure in that it doesn't like to find the openssl libraries when running configure. Looking through the log it states that there is a issue with configure itself.. ---- config.log ----------------------- configure:16174: checking for OpenSSL version "configure", line 16182: Error: "," expected instead of "end of file". "configure", line 16182: Error: Use ";" to terminate declarations. 2 Error(s) detected. ====================== The openssl lib that is installed is: OpenSSL 0.9.7d 17 Mar 2004 The specific section in configure that it is complaining about is: ------------ Section from configure code with comment.. #include <openssl/opensslv.h> #if OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER >= 0x0090600fL yes <---------------- issue right here.... #endif EOF if (eval "$ac_cpp conftest.$ac_ext") 2>&5 | egrep "yes" >/dev/null 2>&1; then rm -rf conftest* echo "$ac_t"">= 0.9.6" 1>&6 else rm -rf conftest* { echo "configure: error: OpenSSL version 0.9.6 or greater required." 1>&2; exit 1; } ================================== It is kind of strange, since the compiles used to work, without any problem, but since about 4.3.4 i am running into this issue. If anyone has any idea, please let me know Thanks S.
