Hi Bill, Thanks for the offer, but we've already confirmed GCC3.2 builds ok on our Solaris 8/9 systems (we've got a few senior citizens of our own doddering about the place). It seems Solaris10 has modified it's systems headers sufficiently to break the GCC3.2.x build, but it would be nice if someone out there with solaris10 could double check to see if it is really Solaris10 or just our system. However, seeing as this release is years behind the current curve, it could be a wake-up for us to update our compilers, as has already been hinted. Painful, but perhaps time?

So if anybody wants me to try to build it, I'll be happy to do that. Sadly, the poor ol' guy is a slow poke, who probably thinks aslmost as slowly as my spastic fingers type. :) Since Tamino, the workstation, has tured six this month, he;s a senior citizen. ;) Bill > Thanks for the reply. > > Yes, I am aware what the the error itself is, but I was hoping this was a known issue, with perhaps a work-around to go with it.
