Re: problems building gcc-2.95.2 on Solaris 2.7

[Mark McGee <mark_mcgee@itd.sterling.com>]

I encountered problems with Sun Ultra 10's + 5's w/Solaris 2.7(it flat does not work, gcc goes nuts
when you kick off a compile).  I found a reference that states that 64 bit and Solaris 2.7 are not
supported by GCC.  Any further insight would be great, here is the reference I found:

http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/install/specific.html#sparc-sun-solaris2.7

relevant entry below:
sparc64-*-*

GCC version 2.95 is not able to compile code correctly for sparc64
targets. Users of the Linux kernel, at least, can use the
sparc32 program to start up a new shell invocation with an environment
that causes configure to recognize (via uname -a)
the system as sparc-*-* instead.
