 This has just cropped up on the gcc-help mailing list. I've reproduced
 this with both the gcc-3.2.3 release and the 3.2 branch from CVS on
 sparc-sun-solaris2.8. The install docs suggest this *should* work.
 Similarly the 3.1 branch fails but the 3.3 branch looks OK.
 
 Is there a good reason that this shouldn't be fixed?
 
 Thanks,
 Rup.
