I think that question is for me, so I try to answer.
Ken, I am not sure what the Solaris x86 Engineering reqs are, but as
far as GCC support
goes the current bundled GCC ( I mean recent SXCR builds ) has
everything included.
I mean all the relevant patches are inside. The gcc identifies itself as
prompt> gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-20050802)
The binaries published on polaris.blastwave.org are built off the
source for this specific
version of GCC. It is my assumption that it has everything we need as
far as generic
C support is involved. The source can be found in SUNWgccS package distributed
with the SXCR.
The powerpc-*-solaris2.* support is added on top of these sources. I
used gcc-3.0.4
(the last gcc to support powerpcle-*-solaris2.5.1) and current sources
to derive some
definitions. I know that it is less then perfect, since I am not a
compiler expert.
Anyway I put the summary of what is done and the packages (both binary
and source)
on wiki.
Does that answer your question, Ken ?
