I'm very interested in your results. Also, which version would you be trying to patch? Version 4.4.1, or the current development branch?

I'll try the trivial patch for this (defining _GLIBCXX_NUM_CATEGORIES as 0) and see how far this gets me. If this produces strictly better results than generic, we can change the libstdc++-v3 default for Solaris (maybe depending on the Solaris version if it doesn't work everywhere).
