Just to annoy you?  No. 

I have gcc 4.7.2 bootstrapping on a few Solaris 8 servers, flawlessly. 
At least thus far. Every attempt and incantation of attempts on Solaris 10,
within or without the "documented" approach has failed. So, go easy on me. 
I have in fact, done this before. Just never on Solaris 10.
