he can get GCC 4.3.2 packages and install them manually at http://blastwave.network.com/testing/gcc4-4.3.2,REV=2008.08.30-SunOS5.8-`uname -p`-CSW.pkg.gz GCC 4.3.3 will be out soon .. I had to test it on old sun4m first. $ uname -a SunOS fossil 5.8 Generic_117350-56 sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-20 $ isalist -v sparcv8 sparcv8-fsmuld sparcv7 sparc $ gcc --version gcc (GCC) 4.3.3 Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
