And even if you need GCC 4.8, choosing 4.8.0 rather than 4.8.5 is a
very bad choice.


Not certain but I think GCC 8.2.0 works on Solaris 9 still.
Or am I thinking Solaris 10 ?

I think Rainer announced the situation a while back :

    Obsolete Solaris 10 support
    https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2018-10/msg00139.html

Sad given that there is a lot of that out there still. Well, not a lot but certianly a bunch. Some. There are some out there still chugging.
