When you want to use Solaris ld (which I'd strongly recommend), it's Solaris 12 only on both sparc and x86. The necessary linker support hasn't been backported to Solaris 11.3 yet, and it seems unlikely it ever will be. Solaris 10 is certainly out of question. If you're really desperate, you could GNU ld instead ;-) Rainer -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainer Orth, Center for Biotechnology, Bielefeld University
