gcc-2.95 on Solaris2.6

[Scott Chapal]

[Sorry if this is posted twice, our NNTP server is erratic].

I had this same exact scenario.  It may be related to BugID: 4210064
and/or Patch: 107058-01.  The patch constellation for V5.0 compilers
is very confused.  SUN should simplify and clarify this:

Also, the do_cluster_install script appears to give spurious warnings
and incorrect patch dependency information under Solaris 2.7.
