True enough.

I agree on all counts. My gcc is version 2.9.

I managed to get gnupg to build on my sparc64, solaris2.8
maching using gcc 2.9. All that seems necessary is to
get the configure line correct. Mine was:
./configure sparc-sun-solaris2 \
--with-included-gettext \
--enable-static-rnd=none
The most important parts were "sparc" and "solaris2",
although "solaris" works too. The configure option
"--disable-asm" will cause the problem I reported as
well.
Thanks Lars....
