The version of lcalc in Sage sage-4.1.2.alpha1 will not build on Solaris if the Sun assembler is used, as the lcalc author chose to add the compiler option
-Wa,-W which was intended to suppress warnings from the assembler. Note, -Wa,-foobar passes -foobar directly to the assembler/ Since -W is not a flag accepted by the Sun assembler, this would fail if gcc was configured to use the Sun assembler. This revised .spkg removes that option. It also add -Wall, if the compiler is g++, to show all warnings. It must be noted that there are many warnings from this package. Variables are used uninitialised, variables are declared but never used, and countless other warnings are shown. These were not seen before, as steps were taken to suppress warnings. I have reversed that, and taken steps to show all the warnings!
