Hi,

I always compiled/installed XEmacs for Sparc-SunOS 4.1.4 so I did not
have the problem in compiling/installing the same stuff for different
Operating Systems (SunOS 4.1.4 vs. Solaris 2.*).

Now, I reached the point that I can/need to compile for both, using
the same sources.

Assuming that I have already compiled/installed the sources for
SunOS:

Q1) What are the correct way to re-compile the sources for Solaris?
    - What cleanup should I do before re-running configure?
    - What are the steps to follow? 
      (e.g.- Re-run configure with the correct parameters
           - Re-run make )

Q2) Installing using a common prefix: 
    - Does exist some makefile target that can be used only to
      install the OS dependent stuff? (Remember, the common stuff is
      already installed...)
    - What about common stuff.. Is influenced by the configure
      differences? (SunOS without CDE, Solaris without NAS, etc.)

TIA
