The "make" step succeeds.

The "make install" step fails with the following:

    zr /usr/testsw/fetchmail-5.8.0>make install
    Creating installation directories...
    /bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs /export/local-SunOS-5.x-sun4/bin 
/export/local-SunOS-5.x-sun4/man/man1
    Installing fetchmail binary...
    ./install-sh -c ./fetchmail /export/local-SunOS-5.x-sun4/bin/fetchmail
    make: execvp: ./install-sh: Permission denied
    make: *** [install] Error 127

This is irrespective of whether the user is root or some other uid.

chmod a+x install-sh

Sorry, it should have been shipped that way.

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and
hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series
of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
