This is a different problem. It's the hideous bug in Solaris that
won't let you create a library if it finds another pre-installed
library with the same SONAME.
...
Hmm... I wonder why we've never run into this problem on Solaris 7
before. Perhaps there's some new patch for Solaris 7's ld that merged
the lossage from Solaris 8? :-(
For reference the most detailed posting I can find on this
issue is:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/2002-03/msg00348.html
and from what I can tell, it is intentional behavior and not a bug in
the Solaris linker. Why do we need to specify -lgcj when linking
together libgcj.so? That looks bogus...
