--- Comment #7 from Denis Excoffier <Denis.Excoffier at airbus dot com> 2011-03-17 13:35:30 UTC --- Conclusion for the build under Solaris2.8, from my point of view, and compared to the build of gcc-4.5.2 (languages C and C++): - as perl 5.6.1 (or higher) is not directly available under solaris2.8 (and i would prefer not to install it), the "Installation instructions" recommend to use --disable-symvers (so we'll also abandon symbol versioning) - --disable-symvers does not work for the sub-folder libgomp (see previous comment). Instead, you have to replace (manually) "enable_symvers=sun" with "enable_symvers=no" in libgomp/configure - --disable-symvers works (presumably) for the sub-folder libstdc++-v3 - --disable-symvers has simply no effect in the sub-folder libssp. However, you obtain the desired result if you replace (manually) "ssp_use_symver=sun" with "ssp_use_symver=no" in libssp/configure With these pre-bootstrap steps, it should work. After many tests, the resulting compiler seems working and usable. For a cleaner gcc-4.6.0.tar.bz2, feel free to upgrade the Installation instructions (see also above), and/or libgomp/configure and/or libssp/configure.
