We have been using the precompiled VTK binaries on a PC, but have run into memory problems.
We are trying to compile on a 1GB RAM SUN Ultra 10 with Elite 3D running Solaris 5.7 and gcc 2.95.1.
We downloaded he latest source code, and configured with 
./configure -with-shared -with-opengl -with-xgl -with-tcl

It runs for awhile, then reports:

c++  -g -O2 -fPIC -DVTK_WORDS_BIGENDIAN -DVTK_USE_PTHREADS -D_HP_NO_FAST_MACROS -DHAVE_LIMITS_H -DHAVE_UNISTD_H -I.  -I. -I./../graphics -DVTK_USE_GRAPHICS -I./../imaging -DVTK_USE_IMAGING  -I/usr/openwin/include  -I./../common -I/space/NETSTUFF/tk8.3.1/generic -I/space/NETSTUFF/tcl8.3.1/generic   -c tcl/CommonInit.cxx -o tcl/CommonInit.o
In file included from /space/NETSTUFF/tk8.3.1/generic/tk.h:83,
                 from vtkTclUtil.h:48,
                 from tcl/CommonInit.cxx:1:
/usr/openwin/include/X11/Xlib.h:2063: ANSI C++ forbids declaration `XSetTransientForHint' with no type
/usr/openwin/include/X11/Xlib.h:2071: ANSI C++ forbids declaration `XActivateScreenSaver' with no type
/usr/openwin/include/X11/Xlib.h:2078: ANSI C++ forbids declaration `XAddHost' with no type
.
lots of forbids declaration errors
.
make[1]: *** [tcl/CommonInit.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/space/NETSTUFF/vtk31/common'
make: *** [build_common] Error 2



We would be very grateful to anyone who can help us get this compiled.

Thanks.
