When configuring with --enable-threads=solaris the build runs for hours and then breaks after the libgfortran finished when configuring boehm-gc .
It would be nice if the main configure script caught this instead of the build failing just as it was about to finish. I am building gcc-4.2.3 release from: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-4.2.3/gcc-4.2.3.tar.bz2 A similar complaint is made here: Fortran and objc Hans Boehm GC build issues -- sparcv9 libs http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2006-09/msg00108.html A claim that configuring with --enable-threads=solaris was fixed is made here: [4.1/4.2 regression] libstdc++ cannot be build with Solaris threads http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28247 If you are going to build this you need to fixup the Makefiles to get "--with-gmp=/opt/gnu/gmp-4.2.2 --with-mpfr=/opt/gnu/mpfr-2.3.1" to work, yet "--with-libiconv-prefix=/opt/csw" works fine. # gcc/xgcc -v Using built-in specs.
