I have tried building the new version and found that several small modifications of the build process were needed to get to the end with solaris and egcs. 1) I I built nspr 2) Autoconf build of rest of project 3) JS libraries fail to build giving error message that SOLARIS is undefined: solution: add -DSOLARIS in autoconf.mk 4) fails to link: kernel_standard not found solution: modify /mozilla/foo/js/src/fdlibm/Makefile to add k_standard.c \ s_rint.c \ s_matherr.c to $(CSRCS) 5) xpviewer fails to compile: -Woff unkown this is a SGI c compiler option: remove from xpviewer/src/Makefile

Scullin no longer works here, assigning to briano for lack of anyone better. Please re-assign if you are not the right person. Gracias.

Reassigning to mccabe, and cc'ing jevering.

egcs per se doesn't seem to be the problem. I did a solaris build with egcs1.1 of the standalone js engine and shell, and everything went smoothly. The problem is more likely some problem with the autoconf build system and defines in the JS sources. But first I have to get an autoconf build going...

There are several Solaris Tinderbox builds running right now that both build and run successfully (for some definition of "success"). So I don't think the problems described in this bug report are an issue anymore. briano.
