A couple of questions:

* Would it be possible to use the same technique for Solaris/x86 or
  Linux/x86, too?  Both versions of Studio 11 provide libsunir.so as well.

* Maybe it would be possible to perform further development on a vendor
  branch in the GCC svn repository?  I'm not sure if this would require SC
  buy-in, though.  Perhaps the changes might become acceptible for FSF GCC
  at some point in time; there have been discussions over at
  opensolaris.org about opening the sources to the Sun compilers.

Thanks.
        Rainer
