There's a path worth travelling, not. These are relatively old servers, but
even assuming Sun could be made to care, which i doubt, thier solution would
probably be to upgrade the server to sol10 / new hardware, and not provide a
patch.
But i think the solution is probably in autoconf detection somehow, i'll see
if i can do something with autoconf/automake stuff. This is sol9 sparc with
gcc from sunfreeware, so maybe the autoconf assumes solaris cc in parts, as
gcc was not always around.
I dont have any sparc gear presently to test on, i'll investigate next
week..

We are using the flag correctly per the documentation, therefore I don't believe this is an OpenLDAP bug. Take this up with Sun...<br><font color="#888888">
