undefined symbol ___builtin_saveregs in X11R6/gcc 2.6.0

I have just compiled X11R6 (with 5 patches applied) for SunOS 4.1.3
using gcc 2.6.0, and many R5 binaries crash with a message like:

  ld.so: call to undefined procedure ___builtin_saveregs from 0xf7649b00

Recompiling the programs with the R6 libraries has caused all but one
of these to work properly.  My question is, is this normal, a bug in
either X11R6 or gcc, or something I did wrong in the compilation?

My other question is, what is this symbol, what does the function do,
and is there a workaround for code which calls it explicitly?

Many thanks.
