Re: status of 64-bit solaris support

It still doesn't work.  Proper support for the sparc64 ABI required
the subreg-byte patch, that was deemed too destabilizing for GCC 3.0.
It's already in the development CVS tree, though, so it's going to be
in GCC 3.1, but not 3.0.*.  It's reported that it might be possible to
get GCC 3.0 working on most cases, but nobody had time to make and
test the required changes.
