I assume you mean renaming TTStreamWriter::putchar to 
TTStreamWriter::put_char. That would be fine. Once you confirm that 
solves your problem on Solaris, I'll test and commit it here.
Cheers,
Mike

Michael,
I'm going to see if there is a fixincludes route to fixing this, but
in case there isn't, is adding an additional name to the
TTStreamWriter, eg. TTStreamWriter::put_char, out of the question?
Thanks,
-Peter

The 5 year plan:
In five years we'll make up another plan.
Or just re-use this one.
