I simply had to give this a try and maybe even be able to bootstrap gcc
on this old old hardware. Just for fun and because I saw someone else
trying gcc 3.4.6 on a Solaris 9 server.
So firstly, yes, this is very real hardware but of course the old
battery in the SPARCStation 20 prom gave up long ago. So I made the
machine reasonably sane as 08:00:20:c0:ff:ee :)

A SPARC-based CPU is available.
CPU's clock rate appears to be approximately 198.4 MHz.
Kernel says CPU's clock rate is 200.0 MHz.
Kernel says main memory's clock rate is 50.0 MHz.
Sun-4 floating-point controller version 0 found.
A Fujitsu/Ross RT620 hyperSPARC chip is available.
FPU's frequency appears to be approximately 236.4 MHz.
Use "-xtarget=ss20/hs11 -xcache=512/32/1" code-generation option.

I had backup tapes from the dark ages and was able to restore the
Sun WorkShop Compilers :
ganymede$ cc -V
cc: WorkShop Compilers 5.0 98/12/15 C 5.0
usage: cc [ options] files. Use 'cc -flags' for details

I did try to build a few things and it was all very hit or miss in terms
of what would compile and test clean. For just about anything after
1999 it was the flip of a coin. I don't have stdbool.h or stdint.h and
a lot of stuff wants to be C99 at least. I have yet to try OpenSSL 1.x
which is very C89 but that is another discussion. I am so very happy to
see that ftp into ftp.gnu.org works neatly but I have no gzip. I was
also happy to see gzip-1.2.4a works well.
My environment is pretty darn simple and the configure looks promising :
AR=/usr/ccs/bin/ar
AS=/usr/ccs/bin/as
CC=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc
EDITOR=/usr/xpg4/bin/vi
LD=/usr/ccs/bin/ld

PERL=/usr/local/bin/perl
POSIXLY_CORRECT=1
SHELL=/bin/ksh
TMPDIR=/var/tmp/dclarke

Yes I was able to build a decent flavour of perl. No problem there.

So that looks like fun. Also I do not have flex nor bison as getting
any version to compile has been a real mess. I may need to dig even
further down the layers of strata to find something that can be bison or
flex.
Any thoughts would be wonderful to hear!

That may be able to bootstrap a ver 5.x but I am not so sure when
Solaris 2.5.1 was dropped entirely. Should be interesting to see.
