No. You'll have to ask each consolidation if/when they plan to
support building with gcc 4.x. Some consolidations require
Sun Studio and don't support gcc at all, others have options for
allowing it.
ON has had some work done to allow the gcc 4.x front-end to work
so that the code can be passed through the parfait code checker
which uses it, but I don't know if anyone has tested that using
gcc 4.x produces a bootable/working kernel. That would be a
question best suited for on-discuss or tools-compilers.
