So it seems. I tried a bunch of gcc 4.x.x versions on my Solaris 
machine in the meanwhile. Not one was successful. With gcc 4.1.2 I get

If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
See `config.log' for more details.

I am using

        cd /opt/temp
        gunzip libintl-3.4.0-sol10-x86-local.gz
        pkgadd -d libintl-3.4.0-sol10-x86-local

        cd /usr/src
        gunzip gcc-4.1.2.tar.gz
        gtar xvf gcc-4.1.2.tar
        cd gcc-4.1.2
        mkdir objdir
        cd objdir
	../configure --with-gnu-as --with-as=/usr/sfw/bin/gas --without-gnu-ld 
--with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --enable-shared --disable-nls 
--enable-languages=c,c++,objc
        make

and have no idea, what this "cross compile" thing means! :-(

Any idea?

Thanks,

  Andreas
