What version of Solaris and gcc are you using?  Can you include
*actual* error messages with actual filenames and line numbers to help
diagnose the problem?

I'm currently running the RC-1_34_0 and CVS-HEAD regression tests on a
Solaris/x86 system with gcc 4.1.1.  I am pretty sure gcc 3.4.x will
work fine as well, but 3.3.x has issues with wide strings and I/O
streams unless you are on Solaris 10 IIRC.

Here's my current config:

The links Dave gives for Boost 1.33.0 are from a Solaris/SPARC machine
to which I no longer have access.
