Yes, there are such issues. The solution is to cross compile it with
distcc.

I stand corrected, 3.4.6 is indeed that last gcc to support SunOS 4.1.x
. I was typing from memory and I tried so many gcc versions
that I lost track. All attempts at building gcc versions > 3.2.3 <=
3.4.6 failed because of the memory issues in the gengtype execution.
And, the last version not to use the gengtype kludge was 3.2.3; for that
version the build process advances further, but it fails when building
libstdc++ with xgcc (the file is bitset.cc).
Thanks for the suggestion; I'll need to learn how to build the
cross-compiler. Do you have any quick advice on how to go about it?
