Having compiled Firefox in the past for Solaris, the only way I could get it to work is with SunStudio ...
I talked to the devs at Firefox at the time and they said that SunStudio was the only compiler that had been used to get Firefox compiled ... I think the assumption in the code is that Solaris = SunStudio. I know that some people have had success with different patches and versions of gcc, but I gave up.
