describes what is a quite serious problem with the Solaris build. Robert's recent changes which add _Complex_I, are breaking the build on Solaris since there is a bug in gcc on Solaris. A simple bit of code which compiles on Linux with gcc, or Solaris with Sun's compiler, breaks on Solaris if compiled with gcc.

Robert has made a patch/hack which allows Sage to build on Solaris, but obviously in a way which will disable functionality.

Is there anyone here with the expertise to fix this? According to the gcc bug I filed,

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42753

"It could be implemented quickly if someone familiar with fixincludes
wishes to fix it."

Unfortunately, reading the fixincludes READMEs, I can't work out what the hell to do.
