Hello Matt,
First, you are right about the inconsistencies and there is a ticket that
describes the considerations
https://rt.openpkg.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=104
Do the problems you noticed with gv actually cause the build to break, or just
spew warning or '-Xc not understood' messages? Last time I built gv on
Solaris it worked, but I'm not sure if I had binutils installed.
