Re: target/8004: All C++ binaries crash in__register_frame_info_bases on Sparc Solaris 2.7

   I should have all the required patches installed.  I have Sun's patch 
   cluster as of 9/11 installed.  I believe this may be due to a bug in 
   ld.so.  I am attaching a copy of an email I received from someone else 
   who appears to have the same problem.  My current workaround is to use 
   Sun's /usr/ccs/bin/ld instead of the one from binutils 2.13.
   
Binutils version 2.13 is known to cause major problems for Solaris
users.

   I am having other stability problems with gcc 3.2 on Solaris and will 
   likely go back to 2.95.3. Konqueror in KDE 3.0.3 and qt-3.0.5 compiled 
   with gcc 3.2 is unstable, for example.  I was hoping 3.2 would fix a 
   problem where I see static destructors being called in a shared library 
   when the shared library is no longer present (causing a crash in the 
   exit handler).  This too, unfortunately sound like it might be a Solaris 
   bug.

You may have more success using binutils-2.12
