Sorry about that; I thought that this was fixed in 3.22.26 :(
From configure, remove the 'big files test':
# Big file support ? (Solaris 2.6 style)
# This may have to be commented on Relient (Siemens) unix
echo $ac_n "checking "for Sun style big file support"""... $ac_c" 1>&6
echo "configure:4890: checking "for Sun style big file support"" >&5
LFS_CFLAGS=`getconf LFS_CFLAGS 2>/dev/null`
if test $? = 0 -a "$SYSTEM_TYPE" != "sni-sysv4"
then
CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $LFS_CFLAGS"
CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS $LFS_CFLAGS"
#
LFS_LDFLAGS=`getconf LFS_LDFLAGS`
LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS $LFS_LDFLAGS"
#
LFS_LIBS=`getconf LFS_LIBS`
LIBS="$LIBS $LFS_LIBS"
echo "$ac_t"""Found. Using C $LFS_CFLAGS LD $LFS_LDFLAGS LIB $LFS_LIBS"" 1>&6
else
echo "$ac_t"""No"" 1>&6
fi
and then do:
make clean
./configure ....
make
make install
scripts/mysql_install_db
