I may be wrong (I don't have a machine close by with gcc on).

Try adding the -v flag to your compile.
This shows all the flags passed to the underlying frontend (cc1plus)


Then you can compare the flags used on Solaris and OS-X.

You will then be able to see if -traditional is being passed
to cc1plus on your OS-X machine



I also believe you can override the flags passed to the frontend
by specifying a specs file on the command line (though I have never
tried this myself). This may be simpler then rebuilding gcc.

I'm using the version of gcc which came with Mac OS X, and I compared it
to the old version of gcc installed on the Solaris mail server. I did not
install either of the two compilers myself.

I did cut and paste the command line and output exactly as they were in
the terminal window.

I guess the OS X compiler came out of the box configured differently than
I expected. I know it has some modifications to support Mac programming,
but I did not expect the preprocessor to be configured differently. I
guess I will just have to use a different computer for my preprocessing or
install another version of gcc.

Thank you for your help.
