 On NetBSD as root, "make stage-install" seems to work fine. On Solaris 
 10 as an unprivileged user, creating the PDF version of the manual fails:

 Right after "Leaving directory ...", on NetBSD comes
 
 /usr/pkg/bin/gmake -C latex
 
 which is completely missing on Solaris.
 
 Maybe someone who is building pkgsrc on NetBSD as unprivileged user can 
 check if this is "NetBSD vs. Solaris" or "root vs. unprivileged user".
 
 On a side note: Would the destdir framework detect that something is 
 missing on Solaris and refuse to install this package for real?
