rebuilding gcc 4.8 on solaris 9

[Riccardo Mottola]

Hi!


I am attempting to rebuild gcc 4.8.4 on solaris 9 (we have a branch for 
that) with the goal to get  it to 4.8.5 then...

We need something better than 4.6, I don't know how far solaris 9 can be 
taken, but I hope solaris 10 can then take gcc 6.5 which is a pretty 
good compiler.

"other projects" (e.g. MacPorts) show that many packages now require 
newer compilers, since we only have gcc, we need that.


Some tweak to the dependencies got me going, but build then breaks for me:

Does this trigger a bell to you?
