[PATCH] Add solaris path for docbook COLLATEINDEX
collateindex.pl is stored in /usr/share/sgml/docbook/. Attached fix
modify docbook.m4 to find correct path.
It would be nice also backported the fix back at least to 8.2.
Thanks Zdenek

I am not happy looking in a directory _above_ a specified directory by
default:
[$DOCBOOKSTYLE/bin $DOCBOOKSTYLE/.. $PATH])
That seems possibly unsafe. I suggest you just add it to the PATH for
Solaris builds.

I'm not sure if it is unsafer that searching in $PATH. Anyway I don't
think that your proposed solution is good way. I'm able to do it but how
many other people can? Who know where collateindex.pl stays on Solaris?
configure is here to make live easier for people. If we know how to do
it automatically we should do it.
If you think that $DOCBOOKSTYLE/.. is not good than I propose to
use /usr/share/sgml/docbook/ directly.

Note that $DOCBOOKSTYLE/bin corresponds to the location of the file in
an unpacked source archive and $PATH is of course where programs
normally go. The $DOCBOOKSTYLE/.. location makes no sense at all,
because that basically says that the installer intentionally moved the
file, but to a completely nonstandard location.

That would be the less ugly solution.

I'm not sgml//docbook guru. Do you think that Solaris location of
collateindex.pl is wrong? Does exist any recommendation for this? I
could log a bug, but I need some link with recommendation.

It's a normal program, so you install it where you would normally
install programs. Like /usr/bin/ or something similar.
