We have some people in the Sage project who know Solaris very well and
are actively porting Sage and the projects Sage contains to Solaris. I
have therefore posted your message to the sage-devel list, and can
forward replies from there to here.

I can try and take a look at this tomorrow. I do have a solaris box
at work to test on, but we are on an older version of gcc. Ideally,
we could find a c preprocessor macro to indicate the platform rather
than do an uname conditioned patch. If anyone knows of a platform
macro for solaris to check for, let me know.

Would you like to take a crack at these fixes? I have scipy coming up
and need to start getting my tutorial material together, so I am not
going to have a lot of time for bug fixes, though I would be happy to
get as many fixes and patches in next week and try to get one bugfix
0.99.1 out before scipy.

Jason,
I have committed versions of all but the third to the v0.99 branch. 
Please check svn r7442-7444. I also propagated them to the trunk. If 
you have any questions or reservations about the modifications I made, 
please raise them! (The modification to #1 is because blanket "except:" 
is highly discouraged in mpl, and seemed unnecessary here. The 
modification to #4 is for code clarity, to make it even more obvious 
that the empty string is used as the version only in case of an exception.)
I did not commit #3. Apart from my lack of c++ expertise, I don't know 
how to implement it so that it takes effect only in the Solaris case. 
Therefore I am leaving this for John; or maybe he will pass it to Mike 
when he comes back from vacation. Below, I am deleting all but #3, to 
make it easier for John to see what we are talking about.
