Hi,
 
Are the following platforms/compilers supported by Xalan-C 1.10?

*       Solaris 2.10 x86 using GCC 32-bit and 64-bit 
*       Solaris 2.10 Sparc 64-bit (sparcv9) using GCC 32-bit and 64-bit 

On Xalan-C official site http://xml.apache.org/xalan-c/download.html
<http://xml.apache.org/xalan-c/download.html> , above platforms are not
mentioned.  
Xalan-C_1_10_0-solaris_28-cc_62.tar.gz
xerces-c2_7_0-solaris_28-cc_62.tar.gz   Solaris 2.8 (32-bit)    
Xalan-C_1_10_0-solaris_28_64-cc_62.tar.gz
xerces-c2_7_0-solaris_28_64-cc_62.tar.gz        Solaris 2.8 (64-bit)    
 
Xalan-C 1.10 was compiled against xerces-c 2.7.0.   Also the compiler is
CC, but not gcc.
 
But above platforms are mentioned on the page
"http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/xml-xalan-dev/200809.mbox/%3CO
fcb92c754.8134fcb8-on802574cc.0049d4bb-802574cc.004a2...@harte-hanks.com

%3E> ".
 
My experience is xerces-c 2.8.0 can be compiled on these two platforms,
not xerces-c 2.7.0.  
 
My questions are:

*       Is there a plan for releasing Xalan with Solaris 64-bit platform
support using GCC? 
*       Can Xalan-C be replaced by Xalan-J?  Is Xalan-J the next
generation of Xalan with Xalan-C supported? 
*       http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/xml-xalan/
<http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/xml-xalan/>  (for the latest source
code) has been removed?  Where can I get the latest source code to check
out 64-bit related bug fixes? 
*       In order to build on Solaris x86_64 platform, I tweaked the
"runConfigure" script to take GCC compiler, but "make" failed.  

        *       My build system configuration: 

                *       Sun Fire 2100 
                *       AMD64 processor 
                *       Solaris 10 x86 64-bit 
                *       Compiler GCC 3.4.3 (/usr/sfw/bin/gcc) 
                *       Make 3.81 
                *       Other tools are downloaded from
http://www.sunfreeware.com 
                *       

        *       Build steps

                *       Xalan-C-1.10.0/i386-pc-solaris2.10 with gcc
3.4.3
