That's ok about the gmp bug. I missed it in my search on gmp bugs & the 
"-DHAVE_CONFIG_H" flag threw me off for a while.  Since it's included 
with the cc & c++ compiles, I assumed it was actually being used.  Silly 
me...  ;-)

Sorry about that, I missed that.  Here they are:

  CC -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -D__GMP_WITHIN_GMPXX -I.. 
-I/opt/gnu/include -I/opt/local/include -I/usr/sfw/include 
-I/usr/include -D__GMP_NO_ATTRIBUTE_CONST_PURE -g0 -xs -fast -fsimple=1 
-fns=no -xtarget=ultraT1 -xarch=sparcvis2 -m64 -mt -xipo -xcode=pic32 
-xpagesize=default -features=extensions -library=stlport4,sunperf

-R/opt/gnu/lib/sparcv9 -R/opt/local/lib/sparcv9 -R/usr/sfw/lib/sparcv9 
-R/usr/lib/sparcv9 -L/opt/gnu/lib/sparcv9 -L/opt/local/lib/sparcv9 -L
/usr/sfw/lib/sparcv9 -L/usr/lib/sparcv9 -lumem -lpthread -lc  -ztext 
-Bdirect -zlazyload -zcombreloc -zignore

As you may be able to tell, I've been trying to come up with a common 
set of flags to build apps & libs for the ultraT1  platform.  So, this 
is for a T1000/T2000, not a Netra T1.  I've had to tweak these a bit, 
but I've gotten good results so far.  But, nothing's perfect..  :-)

Thanks for your help.
