another test run on i386-pc-solaris2.11 is underway. However, may
(all?) gfortran tests now SEGV. One example is
Program received signal SIGSEGV: Segmentation fault - invalid memory reference.
Backtrace for this error:
Segmentation Fault
Thread 2 received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

You seem to have a special fondness for libgfomp ;-)
