------- Comment #2 from paolo dot carlini at oracle dot com 2010-04-02 09:37 ------- Sorry if I'm misunderstanding what you are saying, but, first, I should point out that a baseline is a **baseline**, not something you update from time to time at will. Eg, the x86_64-linux baseline is certainly much older, and works perfectly ok.
That said, I had a quick look to the failures and seem to me very similar to the failures I obtain on x86_64-linux if I onfigure with --enable-clocale=generic, thus overriding the normal choice of the gnu locale model. Isn't the case that on the sparc machine at issue the required localedata is missing and the configury falls back to generic? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43623
