Failure Compiling X386 1.1 on ESIX 3.2.D

[Glenn G. Lai]

When I tried to compile X386 1.1 according to Thomas Roell's instructions,
I got the following message all over the place:

        make[2]: execve: /bin/sh: Arg list too long

It was not the first time I'd encountered such a problem.  I switched from
/bin/make to GNU make 3.59, used GCC instead of cc, and tried sh, csh, and
bash, but the problem persisted.

Any hint?
