Again, killing binary copmpatibility with commmerial software IS the fastest way to kill OI and Illumos ... Even on Linux, commercial software can be run flawlessly across distros, so why would anyone intentionally kill binary compatibility on Illumos/OI ? There's no purpose for that, and I believe that most of this discussion stems from the fact that it is just ASSUMED that a change to gcc kills binary compatiblity (or MUST kill it), but no one has a proof for that. It is quite certain that it will do harm to C++ libraries, but the Studio versions could be put aside into an extra package, that would be a hurdle, but not a killer for Studio applications. -- Dr.Udo Grabowski Inst.f.Meteorology a.Climate Research IMK-ASF-SAT www.imk-asf.kit.edu/english/sat.php KIT - Karlsruhe Institute of Technology http://www.kit.edu Postfach 3640,76021 Karlsruhe,Germany T:(+49)721 608-26026 F:-926026
