Build of gcc 4.4.0 on Solaris 10 Sparc ok, most tests failed.

[Amitava Dutta <ad_101 at yahoo dot com>]

Hi GCC team,

I built GCC 4.4.0 on a SPARC system running Solaris 10

The build went through without any error, 
but most of the tests failed in "make check".
unexpected failures = 6472 and passed = 52.

Output from gcc -v and fragment from make check are below.

What am I doing wrong? 

Is this build usable?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards
Amitava Dutta
