Give Sage a try on OpenSolaris and let me know what happens. I posted
ealier today some notes on what I needed to do to get it build on
SPARC. OpenSolaris might be a bit different. Things might work or
might not work. But some feedback would be useful.

There is one thing to watch out for. Some of the files check the
linker to see whether it is GNU or Sun and so give appropiate flags.
What is actually needed is the linker that gcc uses. But my tests are
based on the first linker in the path. So if your gcc was configured
to use the Sun linker, make sure the location of the Sun linker
(/usr/ccs/bin/) is in the path before any GNU linker from binutils.
Conversely, if your gcc is configured to use the GNU linker and
assembler, make sure the path to those from binutils is in the path
before those of the Sun tools (/usr/ccs/bin).

You can see what linker and assember gcc use, using 'gcc -v'

I''ve not got OpsnSolaris at home but do have Solaris Express
Community Edition on a laptop. MPIR refused to build properly on that,
but others have got MPIR to work OK.

Any feedback is welcome.
