In the installation notes for gcc I have found the following

For Solaris 2.0 and 2.1, GNU CC needs six packages: `SUNWarc',
     `SUNWbtool', `SUNWesu', `SUNWhea', `SUNWlibm', and `SUNWtoo'.

For Solaris 2.2, GNU CC needs an additional seventh package:
     `SUNWsprot'.

We have Solaris 2.4 without the Sun compiler, hence without the
SUNWspro package. We do have gcc 5.4, and want to upgrade to
2.7.1. How can I do it without the above optional packages? It seems
that the installation of gcc presumes that the installer already
purchased Sun's cc...

Thanks,

Mate
