Sorry,
I was a little to fast to send this, I sent it to you directly by mistake.

Mikhael,
Is there some way we can track down the slow drawing issue? I'd really
like to be able to upgrade from 2.5.7 to use a couple of the newer
features. I'd be happy to do what I can to help track this down. I
couldn't find any reference in the list archives about possible fixes
since Elliot initially reported the problem with the 2.5.8 release.

You were right I am using Sun's make, not gmake, my mistake.
There is no version associated with make, so I've included the pkginfo
output.
$ which make
/usr/ccs/bin/make
$ pkginfo -l SUNWxcu4t
