Ok thanks, if this discussion is the reference on the subject, I will
consider getting these 2 additional unexpected failures on solaris
not-a-bug (or even a good thing), although I still find it arguable
that the testsuite considers it a bug.
The testsuite considers it "a bug" because, 'til today we worked under
the assumption that the supported targets don't change the C headers
depending on the C++ compiler being used, an interesting possibility
indeed, which, however, would require a restructuring of various areas
of the C++ library. To repoeat, these are complicated issues and,
frankly, until DR 456 gets a complete, full resolution, I'm not so keen
of changes "in the small" to the library. But we already discussed that,
in various audit trails...
