I successfully got it to work by configuring with an explicit --with-libiconv-prefix flag pointing to a library with iconv in it. If configure is allowed to find iconv on its own, it messes up. It's now in the middle of building the Java library. > > I do have a build report that was generated over the weekend for > > sparc-sun-solaris2.8 that does not contain Java, it is at > > > > http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-04/msg01245.html > > > > with tests for both 32 and 64 bits.

The patch is at: > http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils-cvs/2005-01/msg00019.html Yes, you sent me a message before when I couldn't build at all, which I applied, but you pointed me to a different patch: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils-cvs/2004-09/msg00036.html This is the patch that http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#x-x-solaris2 points to. If an additional patch is needed, install/specific.html should be updated, and perhaps a single patch that does the whole job should be made available.
