>Environment:
SPARC Solaris 7 with the following pacthes applied:
106541-08, 106793-03, 107544-02, 107038-01, 106934-03,
107022-04, 106327-06, 106327-08, 106300-09, 106960-01,
106725-01, 107171-03
>Description:
Solaris patch 107058-01 patches /usr/ccs/bin/as assembler
to add support for V9 ELF register symbols and the .register
pseudo-op.

After applying this patch, any version of gcc used (tested
with 2.8.1, 2.95.2, and 2.95.3) generated corrupted shared
libraries (tested specifically with glib and gtk+, both
versions 1.2.8 and 1.2.10).

Recompiling gcc with the new, patched version of as did not 
seem to have any effect.
>How-To-Repeat:
1) Add patch 107058-01 to a Solaris 7 SPARC
2) Unpack glib and gtk and compile as per instructions
3) Compile and run any of the example programs (tested
   specifically with the helloworld example)
>Fix:
If possible, backout this patch using patchrm.  If backing
out is not possible, reinstall the original SUNWsprot from 
the distribution media, along with any previously-applied 
patches that modify this package, except 107058-01.
