A couple of things. * First, coreutils doesn't require C99; it merely requires a few C99 features, like declarations after statements. GCC 3.2.3 should be fine. * Second, I'd be surprised if the latest GCC doesn't build on Solaris 7. Certainly its installation instructions talk about Solaris 7. (I long ago lost my last Solaris 7 host, so I can't easily check this myself.) So I wouldn't worry so much about this issue; it's not as serious as it might seem. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
