[sw-porters-discuss] libCstd issues while working on porting blender 2.49 to IPS

[Alfred Peng]

I'd recommend to wait until the integration of apache C++ standard
library: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/arc-process/PTLtestbed/PTL/
in b120. As I know, the target is that all the C++
libraries/applications will be built with it (+ Sun Studio) when it's
integrated. Some of your build issues should be fixed at that time.

Hope this help,
-Alfred
