Solaris 2.8 build

Fri Mar 15 14:51:00 GMT 2002

I see this in the top-level configure.in:
 sparc-*-solaris*)
 case "${host}" in
 sparc-*-solaris2.8)
 # According to Gerald Pfeifer <pfeifer@dbai.tuwien.ac.at>, libjava
 # won't build correctly on Solaris 8 if there's a
 # previously-installed version of GCC in the configured prefix.
 # This problem does not show up on earlier versions of Solaris.
 noconfigdirs="$noconfigdirs ${libgcj}"
 ;;
 esac
Is there something we can do about it?
Disabling libgcj in this case is unfortunate.
