Strangely, I couldn't reproduce this bug on Solaris 8 using any
of GCC 3.3, 4.0, or the Sun C compiler. (Actually the Sun
compiler gives some warnings and errors we should fix, but
they're not related to this problem.)
I suggest that we don't spend time on these problems. Frankly, I'm beginning to think that it's a gcc problem rather than our own problem. I suggest that we just mention in the release notes that problems have been reported on Solaris, and recommend that Solaris users compile with CFLAGS="-g -O0". Similarly with the Mac issue just mention that the Mac gcc 4.0.0 must be build 5026 and that build 4061 causes problems. I haven't tried RC5 under GNU/Hurd yet. I'll try to do that in the next few days.
