I was able to build gcc 3.3.3 on Intel Solaris 8. I configured with: --prefix=/usr/local.share/gnu/3.3.3 --exec-prefix=/usr/local.share/gnu/3.3.3/H-i386-pc-solaris2.8 --srcdir=/usr/local.share/gnu/src/gcc-3.3.3 --enable-languages=c,c++,java --with-cpu=i686 --disable-nls and compiled with gcc 3.2.2. I did not encounter any compile errors like yours. What arguments to configure did you use? However, I had to abandon the GNU linker (from binutils 2.14) on Intel Solaris 8 with gcc 3.3.3, so I added: --without-gnu-as --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as --without-gnu-ld --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld I found that the GNU linker would not always find C++ type information and links failed with undefined symbols. Using the native linker on the same object files worked. This occurred on some but not all of our larger programs. I would suggest you use the native Solaris linker and assembler. -- Richard Sewards -----Original Message----- From: Carl B.
