WChar and Libstdc++ / Solaris 2.8

[Olivier <revelat at app-line dot com>]

Hi,

We had to use gcc and libstdc++ (with wchar_t support), and reading 
discuss-list / web site we saw that whacr_t should be supported in gcc 
3.2 and later without any modifications.
But, after we had recompile gcc and libstdc++ (bootstrap with cc), we 
still did not have wchar_t support, and we had to apply "patch" found in 
a message (modify 3 scripts before confgure) in order to enable wchar_t 
support.

Just to try (because we can not use gcc 3.3 serie due to external 
profiling tool), with gcc 3.3.1, it is exactly the same thing, 
everything working fine, excepted that wchar_t are not supported.


Is this "problem" will be solved in next release ?
