Well, but we need more hints to other compilers such as Sun Studio instead 
of whining that the code does not compile with Sun Studio. We need to 
inform the Authors about their problems and we need to tell these people to use
Sun Studio. 

After fixing some bugs in Linux include files, I was able to compile all my 
sources on Linux using Sun Studio. See the notes in the file README.compile
in my source distributions.
