It is recommended that you configure GCC to use the GNU assembler, in
@file{/usr/sfw/bin/gas}. The versions included in Solaris 10, from GNU
binutils 2.15, and Solaris 11, from GNU binutils 2.19, work fine,

if you use a combination of the GNU tools and the Sun tools: while the

the reverse combination Sun @command{as} + GNU @command{ld} is known to

GNU @command{ld} usually works as well, although the version included in
Solaris 10 cannot be used due to several bugs. Again, the current

features, so better stay with Sun @command{ld}.
