Re: Fwd: Libtool 1.5 Solaris 9 with GCC3.3

[Bob Friesenhahn]

I have always used Sun's ld under Solaris (since 1992) and have not 
seen GCC's -shared option fail to work due to using it.

Certain patch versions of Sun's ld have had bugs when used with GCC, 
but I believe that this was specific to Solaris 8 and was fixed with a 
later ld patch.
