FYI, I could not reproduce this on a new build (I usually use GNU binutils
on Solaris though). But I only have Solaris 8.
Or perhaps it succeeds anyway if you have enough swap. I have about
1.5GB.
Note that the Solaris kernel supports absurdly long command lines
(~390KB), so you may not be getting incremental linking at all.
Is there a PR open for the libgcj.so link (big, slow, etc.)? I don't
remember one.
