First to the lyx-devel list: the STL excessively long symbol names
barfing Solaris 2.6 ld problem can be worked around by compiling gcc
to use gnu binutils. Took me hours, but now I can confirm success using
Solaris-2.6
gcc-3.0.4
binutils-2.12
lyx-1.1.6fix4
I think working around the ld problem would still be worth while as in the
current state of affairs I really can't recommend using Lyx to my
colleagues.

I prefere generally email submission because
- I do not have to learn anything new (except bug reporting address)
- the forms user interfaces are often awful. For example
the Lyx bug reporting form does not offer 80 character
wide textarea and my compiler output was wrapped so badly
as to render it really difficult to read.
- I can not Cc other interested parties, such as my colleagues
on the bug report
- I am experienced bug reporter so I think I can distill
the relevant information without guidance

I think it works well without them as well. I used it for one project
myself two years back.
