Comment:

 The diff looks good as far as it goes, and #9544 (based on this) installs
 fine and passes relevant tests on OS X 10.6.

 I can't test whether this actually works on Solaris or know whether these
 fixes are right, have to take your word for it. The Mac fix isn't
 mentioned on this ticket, either, and I can't check if it's necessary or
 actually fixes anything.

 Finally, is `flintqs-gcc-4.3-fix.patch` still in use?    It apparently was
 ''not'' actually applied before?  At least that's what the diff seems to
 indicate.  That patch was added over 4 years ago, and I'm not even sure
 whether we allow people to build with gcc-4.3...  In fact,
 {{{
 $ hg log -p spkg-install | less
 }}}
 indicates that maybe the patch was ''never'' applied.  ???  Or maybe the
 fix was simply applied in source (against regulations)?

 Anyway, what do you think about that patch?  Obviously it still applies,
 and maybe doesn't cause any trouble.

 ----

 For positive review, should someone else try it on Solaris?  Also we would
 need just informational update on the Mac and extra patch as mentioned
 above.
