You can install gcc in any directory; you don't need root access to build and install gcc (or any other gnu package) from source code. Just use the --prefix control argument on configure. For example, I have a test hierarchy and say: configure --prefix=/h/paulg/prefix The binaries go into /h/paulg/prefix/bin
You then diddle the "path" environment variable to include the bin directory in the list of dirs to search.

I cannot install gcc or make on this box, and I don't have another Solaris 8 64 bits where I could compile it on and then copy it across! I only have Solaris 7, or Solaris 9 64bit boxes available, but I can't believe it they would be of any use for compiling for a different OS version... Any other idea?
