good news and bad news

[Phil Edwards]

The good news is that recent Solaris is building again.  (I don't have
access to 2.6 or 2.5 machines at the moment.)  Many thanks to everyone!

The bad news is that almost none of the testsuite passes.  A lot of the
failures are crashes in the linker itself, which I've reported to the
binutils folks.  Nearly all the rest are like this:

% gdb --quiet --nw testsuite/find.st-exe core.find.st-exe.6524 
Core was generated by `/tec/build/3test/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/libstdc++-v3/testsuite/find.st-exe'.
Program terminated with signal 10, Bus Error.
#0  0x11ca0 in __register_frame_info (begin=0x5a200, ob=0x50005)

563         case DW_OP_plus_uconst:

And we also have some that fail to compile due to 'char**' and 'const char**'
being interchanged in some locale thing somewhere.  That's for tomorrow.
