Execution problems with 3.4.p1 and 3.6.p1

[Koenig, Jeff]

I think your problem is that you are using the wrong "strip" program.

You want to use Sun's /usr/ccs/bin/strip instead of /usr/local/bin/strip.

To test this out, try renaming the /usr/local/bin/strip to
/usr/local/bin/strip_gcc
Example:
cd /usr/local/bin
mv strip strip_gcc

Then type "which strip" and your output should be:
% which strip
/usr/ccs/bin/strip

Now try recompiling OpenSSH and it should work for you.

You can do a search on Google newsgroups to find out more info on this:

Search for "/usr/ccs/bin/strip" and "ELF".
