Hi all, before I delve too deeply into this, has anyone else tried building 
7.4.6 on Solaris 9 (sparc) ? I'm seeing build failures using Sun's cc:

make[4]: Entering directory `/tmp/postgresql-7.4.6/src/backend/access/heap'
cc -Xa -O -v -I../../../../src/include   -c -o tuptoaster.o tuptoaster.c
"tuptoaster.c", line 831: member can not have variably modified type: data
"tuptoaster.c", line 937: cannot recover from previous errors
cc: acomp failed for tuptoaster.c

Which is:
struct       {               struct varlena hdr;               char            data[TOAST_MAX_CHUNK_SIZE];       }
                chunk_data;
 

The compiler is cc: Sun C 5.6 2004/06/02 (Sun Studio 9)

If no-one's seen this before, I'll do some digging.

Regards, Philip.
