[vtkusers] Trouble installing VTK on Solaris.

I tried setting the CXXFLAGS and CFLAGS, and did a ./configure clean; 
reconfigured and tried gmake again, but now, even before I reach the same 
place, i get the following error:

/usr/java1.2/bin/javac -d /home/nandwani/vtk3.2/java/vtk 
java/vtk/vtkActor2D.java
java/vtk/vtkActor2D.java:7: Superclass vtk.vtkProp of class vtk.vtkActor2D not 
found.
public class vtkActor2D extends vtkProp

I had encountered this error yesterday, but when I set env variables CC and 
CXX to gcc and c++ respectively, it worked.  Now it is again not working, 
though all the environment variables are set.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Mukta.
