A couple of questions:
* Would it be possible to use the same technique for Solaris/x86 or
Linux/x86, too? Both versions of Studio 11 provide libsunir.so as well.
* Maybe it would be possible to perform further development on a vendor
branch in the GCC svn repository? I'm not sure if this would require SC
buy-in, though. Perhaps the changes might become acceptible for FSF GCC
at some point in time; there have been discussions over at
opensolaris.org about opening the sources to the Sun compilers.
Thanks.
Rainer
