I've now regtested that patch on sparc-sun-solaris2.11 (compared to a
bootstrap without java before) and i386-pc-solaris2.11. No regressions,
but gcc.c-torture/execute/bswap-2.c is still failing on sparc.
Since it seems a non-workaround patch is now forthcoming, I'll hold off
on installing it, but instead keep it local for the moment.
Thanks.
