Automake, sun workshop, and dependency

Hi,

I'm new to autoconf/automake (but not to unix), and I'm trying to get
a build system working with both GCC and SUN workshop.

It works perfectly for GCC, and it compiles for SUN Workshop, but
dependancies don't seem to be managed for the later:

$ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install...
/soft/flextool/sparc-solaris8/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for gawk... (cached) gawk
checking for a BSD-compatible install...
/soft/flextool/sparc-solaris8/bin/install -c
checking whether ln -s works... yes
checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... yes
checking whether we are cross compiling... no
checking for suffix of executables...
checking for suffix of object files... o
checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... no
checking whether /soft/sun/ws/6u2/bin/cc accepts -g... yes
checking for /soft/sun/ws/6u2/bin/cc option to accept ANSI C... none
needed
checking for style of include used by make... GNU
checking dependency style of /soft/sun/ws/6u2/bin/cc... none
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: executing depfiles commands

I upgraded to the very latest version of both autoconf and automake,
but it still doesn't work.

1) Is it supposed to work ?

2) Is there a workaround ?

Thanks
