Comment(by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:6 jhpalmieri]:
 > Will that use the Sun assembler?

 No, the assembler/linker executables are hardcoded when GCC is compiled.
 You can see this by:
 {{{
 jdemeyer@mark:~$ gcc -print-prog-name=as
 /usr/local/binutils-2.20.1/sparc-SunOS-ultrasparc3-gcc-4.4.3/bin/as
 }}}
 This means that gcc will always use that assembler, which is the GNU
 assembler:
 {{{
 jdemeyer@mark:~$ /usr/local/binutils-2.20.1/sparc-SunOS-
 ultrasparc3-gcc-4.4.3/bin/as --version
 GNU assembler (GNU Binutils) 2.20.1.20100303

 This assembler was configured for a target of `sparc-sun-solaris2.10'.
 }}}

 I encountered the problem on this ticket while testing #12369.  The
 default `as` in the PATH is
 {{{
 jdemeyer@mark:~$ which as
 /usr/ccs/bin/as
 jdemeyer@mark:~$ as -V
 as: Sun Compiler Common 10 Patch 05/06/2005
 }}}

 So, when compiling GCC, that assembler will be used by default.  This can
 be overridden using the `AS` environment variable (similarly `LD` for the
 linker).
