 What is #pragma redefine_extname?  Who uses it?
 The Sun compiler and Sun linker?  I don't think
 this is a gcc pragma.

 I do not know enough about Solaris to say if your
 solution is workable or not, but it is certainly interesting.
 
 If you could test out the following and report back the results
 to us, that would be helpful:
 
 Edit gcc/config/sparc/sol2.h, change the following lines from:
 /* For C++ we need to add some additional macro definitions required
    by the C++ standard library.  */
 #define CPLUSPLUS_CPP_SPEC "\
 -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE=1 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE=1 \
 -D__EXTENSIONS__ \
 %(cpp) \
 "
 
 
 to:
 
 /* For C++ we need to add some additional macro definitions required
    by the C++ standard library.  */
 #define CPLUSPLUS_CPP_SPEC "\
 -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE=1 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE=1 \
 -D__EXTENSIONS__ -D__PRAGMA_REDEFINE_EXTNAME \
 %(cpp) \
 "
 
 
 Then you would have to:
 - configure
 - make boostrap
 - make check
 
 Also, report to us if you are using GNU binutils or
 the Sun linker/assembler.
 
 Thanks.
