problems with std::wstring on Solaris

[Anthony Feick]

I assume you're talking about PR 6702 :
http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=gcc&pr=6702


When I did that and tried to recompile libstdc++, I had problems with 
iswblank, vfwscanf, vswscanf, vwscanf, and wcstof.  (Probably the reason 
GLIBCPP_USE_WCHAR_T was off.)  After I commented those out in 
gcc-3.2/libstdc++-v3/include/c_std/std_cwchar.h and 
gcc-3.2/libstdc++-v3/include/c_std/std_cwctype.h libstdc++ compiled and 
installed fine.

Unfortunately, now basic_string::push_back gives a Segfault wmemset () from 
/usr/lib/libc.so.1.  I assume this means I am now doing something 
incompatible with the system libraries.

This just seems unusual.  I had been using gcc 3.0.4 and libstdc++-v3.0.96 
perfectly on Solaris once I commented out iswblank.  Would I be better using 
ibstdc++-v3.0.96 with gcc 3.2??  The reason I'm doing the upgrade anyway is 
to get a standard release, and have the same gcc on all of the (UNIX) OSes 
we use.
