Hello,
You are probably right regarding the future versions of the Solaris
Studio compiler. Here is a new webrev with the check being >= 513 (which
is indeed 12.4).

I still only apply it to adlc as that's where +w is active. I doubt +w
will be activated for the rest of hotspot anytime soon as the amount of
warnings triggered is quite substantial.

Further investigation revealed that this "error" was actually just a warning
being upgraded to error by -errwarn. The warning is only activated by +w, which is turned
on for adlc but not for the rest of the hotspot build. Based on this, I have revised my
proposal to just disabling this warning for adlc and the particular compiler version.

I think the new approach is good, e.g. disable the specific warning.
However, only doing so for this one compiler rev (I assume 513
corresponds to SS12u4?) seems like a mistake to me. I don't expect the
warning to go away with future compiler versions.
