There is also this (which needs correcting / proofreading): # info gccinstall i?86-*-solaris2.10 ================== Use this for Solaris 10 or later on x86 and x86-64 systems. This configuration is supported by GCC 4.0 and later versions only. It is recommended that you configure GCC to use the GNU assembler in `/usr/sfw/bin/gas' but the Sun linker, using the options `--with-gnu-as --with-as=/usr/sfw/bin/gas --without-gnu-ld --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld'. Should that say: It is recommended that you configure GCC to use the GNU assembler in `/usr/sfw/bin/gas' _WITH_ the Sun linker... -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38693
