Hmph. Those are controlled by SANE_TOOL_PATH at git's build time, with
the intent that the xpg tools are less terrible than the ones in
/usr/bin on Solaris. But it sounds like that may not be the case. Yuck.
I don't have a Solaris box handy. Is there a way to make sequences like
A-Z work sanely with /usr/xpg6/bin/tr?
Do you have any LANG or locale settings? Sometimes those can affect
sequences. What does:
echo AUTHOR | LANG=C LC_ALL=C /usr/xpg6/bin/tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'
do?
