Last night Sage 4.1.1.rc0 built on my Sun Ultra 80, though I had to
bypass Maxima and apply a hack to the pari include file. It appeared
to work, though the notebook does not.

This was using Solaris 10 update 7 (same as on t2) and GCC version
4.4.0 (GCC version 4.4.1 was released two weeks ago).

I've stuck a few notes in

http://wiki.sagemath.org/solaris

I just tried to have a go with Sun's compiler, but hit an immediate
issue - the configure script at the beggining says my version of gcc
is too old. Clearly that needs changing if the compiler specified is
not gcc, then it does not check for a gcc version.

I basically did

$ export CC=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc
$ export CXX=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC
$ export SAGE_FORTRAN=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/g95
$ export CFLAGS=-m32
$ export CXXFLAGS=-m32
$ export FFLAGS=-m32

then typed

$ make
<SNIP>
checking for gcc... /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc
checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... no
checking whether /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc accepts -g... yes
checking for /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc option to accept ANSI C... none needed
<SNIP>
checking whether gcc is new enough... configure: error: please upgrade
to gcc 3.x or 4.x
 ERROR: You do not have all of the prerequisites needed
 to build SAGE from source.  See the errors above.
make[1]: *** [installed/prereq-0.3] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/rootpool2/local/kirkby/sunbuild/sage-4.1.1.rc0/spkg'

I think once we get Maxima and ECL fixes into Sage the only issue
stopping a build is this pari header file.

However, notebook() would not work for me. I've seen this same issue
now with two different versions of gcc, on two different computers and
with two different versions of Sage.

I'm in the process of building Sage on t2 - both with gcc 4,2.4 and
4.4.0. I'll let you know the results later.
