	If no FEATURE is specified following the list of options above,
it just means there are no features to be enabled/disabled. AFAIR the
only option you may specify is --without-x to compile without X-windows
support. In this case the only display available might be SVGA. I'm not
sure since I've never tested yet -- and I should at some point  ;-)

	If you're not familiar with configure scripts, I would suggest
you rather get and install the binary package of POV-Ray (povlinux.tgz).

	Okay, I wrongly assumed you were on Linux, but apparently it's
SunOS. With the current configure script you will have problems to
compile on this architecture. In particular you should update the
CFLAGS in the source/ Makefile. Warp (POV-Tag member) might be around
to help you.

	The next POV-Ray version will correctly manage configuration/
compilation/installation regardless of the platform (well, at least
that's the hope).
