There are two different "install"s in solaris; normal users have
/usr/ucb/install ahead in the PATH, but when you become superuser
to do the "make install", /usr/sbin/install comes first in the PATH
and it's completely different. I got it to work by editing
/usr/openwin/lib/config/Imake.tmpl to include the line
#define InstallCmd /usr/ucb/install
or you could also try
# PATH=/usr/ucb:$PATH export PATH
# make install
