I'll have to check this but I think some of the changes that Simon
Atanasyan from SUN made and published in his blog address this. It's a
tad late in the day for me to check but it may well be that I've got a
patch for that which I'm preparing...

I don't think we should as the compiler in general is fairly standard
compliant. However SUN mainly supports the configuration of this
compiler + STLport. If you don't use that configuration you may be
seeing some really odd things happening.
