Hi Jonathan,
> The src/c++26/debugging.cc file defines a global volatile int which can

this patch broke Solaris/x86 bootstrap with /bin/as:
Assembler: debugging.cc
"libstdc++-v3/src/c++26/debugging.cc", line 141 : Illegal mnemonic
Near line: " int3"
"libstdc++-v3/src/c++26/debugging.cc", line 141 : Syntax error
Near line: " int3"
I found that both int $0x3 and .byte 0xcc work instead and are also
understood by gas, dis and objdump confirming that they produce the same
results.
