Hello.
I'd like to hear about people who now hardly depends on Sun Studio-compiled C++ libraries AND use OpenIndiana. Do you have software which can't be recompiled with GCC? Do you know commercial software which depend on the libraries?

I mean the following OI packages:
 database/postgres/library/c++/libpqxx
 library/c++/glibmm
 library/c++/libxml++
 library/c++/net6
 library/c++/obby
 library/c++/sigcpp
 library/c++/stdcxx
 library/desktop/c++/cairomm
 library/desktop/c++/gtkmm
 library/desktop/c++/mm-common
 library/desktop/c++/pangomm

I'd like to drop them and replace by g++-compiled (incompatible) versions. Who will be affected?

If there are some specific libraries of interest, we can discuss ways to move them to alternative locations (e.g. /usr/CC/). If you need them, do you need just binaries (*.so* files) or actually compile software using these libraries and Sun Studio?

For example, we could just preserve the contents of these packages in some public place or deliver some renamed packages, if it's really needed. But I'd like to avoid the later option.

I don't speak about system/library/c++/sunpro, this one will be preserved.
