could not build ghc-6.12.0.20091121 under solaris

after unpacking ghc-6.12.0.20091121-src.tar.bz2 and doing "./configure" and "gmake" I get many lines with:

/bin/sh: syntax error at line 1: `;' unexpected

probably because /bin/sh is not bash under solaris. (I've no idea what calls /bin/sh)

Finally building fails with:

compiler/nativeGen/AsmCodeGen.lhs:19:1:
    lexical error at character 'i'
gmake[1]: *** [compiler/stage2/build/.depend-v-p] Error 1
gmake[1]: *** Deleting file `compiler/stage2/build/.depend-v-p'
gmake: *** [all] Error 2

(thats the 'i' of an '#include', probably because unlit wasn't build)

My log file is 1MB long (so I'm not sure if I can attach it here)
