uname -a gives me:
SunOS globox 5.11 snv_78 i86pc i386 i86pc
and /etc/release says
Solaris Express Community Edition snv_78 X86

Is it even supposed to be possible to build openjdk on Solaris Express?

Solaris 8 and 9 do not have the dtrace compiler by default, and there
is no 'official' dtrace compiler available for those releases.
The jdk7 release has changed it's official Solaris build release to
Solaris 10, which should have dtrace. Although there was some issues
with dtrace in early Solaris 10 releases.
I think the Solaris 10 kernel patch that has the dtrace fixes is
available from:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-118833-36-1
Also...
When using HOTSPOT_DISABLE_DTRACE_PROBES=true, you may need to start
the complete
build from scratch. Try doing a 'gmake clean' first.

Hi all,
I am trying to compile the first Mercurial source drop on an Ultra 20

eventually end up with the following:

I can continue past this if I set
HOTSPOT_DISABLE_DTRACE_PROBES=true, but then the VM won't link.
Does anyone have any idea as to what might be wrong with
vmGCOperations.o?
Thanks,
David
