We have just recently upgraded several of our Suns to Solaris 5.8, and we too
saw this problem. We have downloaded the latest version of the Boehm GC system
and gotten that to work on our various platforms. So we have an internal
version of Cecil and Vortex that works. Let us know what front-ends you're
looking for, and we'll see about making you a tar file of our latest system.
We're a little busy right now, working on post-Vortex projects, so don't hold
your breath, but we'll try to get to it as soon as we can. Thanks.
