Stefan,

Thanks for the response.

I have a hard time to conclude the from the link you sent that GCC 
cannot be used. Also almost all of the links in the appendix C do not
work. Can you point me to the specific point in the material?

Based on this link (sorry folks outside the SWAN):

http://ostest.central.sun.com/wiki/index.php/Package_Delivery_Project#3._Develop_Software

It seems that the use of GCC is allowed. If this is not the case, then 
perhaps we need to update the above.

So if a package requires GCC for compilation and making the changes is 
not trivial to make it compatible with Studio, then that
package cannot be ported to OpenSolaris?

Regards,

Faramarz
