As Ruby is compiled with GCC I need to compile xapian with GCC
too, otherwise the mangling does not work. However, Python requires
Sun Studio. Is there any kind of "mangling conversion" between
Sun Studio and GCC or must I really provide two versions of the
xapian libraries?
I think moving ruby to SOS12 is the better long term solution, but
could this be handled with modulations?
Definitely. That would mean Ruby for Solaris 8 with GCC and starting
with Solaris 9 with Sun Studio 12? That would make things of additional
packages awfully hard as they would require modulations too. I like
deprecation of Solaris 8 better here due to the massive complexities
introduced with the splitted compilation. Anyway, an example for
a compiler modulation is libtool.
So I propose making a Solaris 8 Ruby with GCC if you really need it
and starting with Solaris 9 and Sun Studio 12 for eveything else.
BTW, are you interested in packaging up RubeEE and Phusion Passenger?

I would need that also for my project, but as Ruby maintainer this
would naturally be more on your side ;-)
Best regards
