On my Sun Ultra 27, which has a quad core Xeon, running OpenSolaris
06/2009, libgrcypt would not build. The error message indicated it was
related to the use of assembly code.
However, I believe libgcrypt did not cause an issue on 'disk.math', so I'm
somewhat surprised it did on my Ultra 27. But I think it is safer to
disable assembly language on all Solaris x86 systems. (It is '''not'''
necessary to do so on Solaris on SPARC)
I also added some tests for other platforms (AIX, HP-UX, Tru64 and IRIX)
and disabled assembly language on them too. It is most unlikely assembly
code for them will work, and I hope to try at least some of these
platforms in the near future.
The only updates are to spkg-install and SPKG.txt. The revised files will
be put into
http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/Solaris-
fixes/libgcrypt-1.4.4.p1
within 30 minutes of this post. (I thought I'd get the trac ticket in
first, so the trac number can go into the SPKG.txt)
