Just following up here. Perhaps it was not a good idea to fire a bug report at 7.0.14RC1 but what is done is done. It can always be marked "not a bug" or "yes we know" at this time. For now I will drop down to using cc and a set of more permissive CFLAGS which allow for some extensions and transitive code elements. The configure stage seems fine thus far and a compile is running. Merely as a side note, I know that the folks inside Oracle are slowly dropping support for their own operating system Solaris 10. This is evidence in the fact that Oracle won't release MySQL 5.7 or the MySQL cluster software for Solaris 10 at all. Despite the fact that Sol 10 is well supported for many more years to come and most of their customer base is on it still. However, the sources of major software elements such as PHP *should* compile clean within such a POSIX environment using the tools provided. I am a big big fan of GCC also. Have been for 20 years. It just isn't a really tightly conforming compiler ( yet ) and the optimization within the sparc servers is still best done with Oracle Studio tools.
