Trouble porting X11R4 to ISC 2.2 - "Arg list too long"?

Anybody successfully build the X11R4 core images (i.e., xterm, shared lib's,
etc.) on ISC 2.2?  I seem to have run into a problem midway through the
"make ... World" process where the error

     "$?: Arg list too long"

appears, after which builds barf due to failed image builds (in particular,
libXmu.a). I suspect that I have run into some sort of length restriction of
"/bin/sh".

Any workarounds available?  Help.... :-)

Please E-mail -- see .signature below.  Thanks in advance...
