I have seen that.
The question is: Gcc seems to get it right ;).
In my little world two compiler should handle this the same but I have
learned that Sun is in many cases different world ...
1+1 is always 2 - on Sun it could also be 3 ;).

I have some minor troubles when using the Sun Compiler 9 on Solaris 9.
The spinlock assembler code is somehow broken for Solaris 9 and Solaris
10 (it works for Sun CC 8).
The following patch fixes this:

There's already an #ifdef around that code -- is it not matching
correctly for your compiler? Here's what I see in REL8_0_STABLE
and in HEAD (s_lock.c 1.35):
244 #ifdef SUNOS4_CC
245 asm(".seg \"data\"");
246 asm(".seg \"text\"");
247 #else
248 asm(".section \"data\"");
249 asm(".section \"text\"");
250 #endif
This looks like the thread that led to the above code:
