Speaking as someone who has in the past built NetBSD on (Open)Solaris, I am not averse to this change. Building a modern version of GCC on something old like Solaris 10 isn't the easiest thing in the world, especially if you want to do a competent job of it, but it really does just boil down to managing GCC's dependencies. Once you are done, not only can you build NetBSD, but you have a modern competently installed version of GCC on your obviously important Solaris box. Cheers, Lloyd
