   However, if you compile Emacs (or anything using gcc) you need to add
   the compile time flag "-B/bin/" so that gcc knows to use the Sun ld.
   Otherwise you end up with huge static binaries.  It would be nice if GNU
   fixed gcc so that it would use Sun's dynamic shared libraries... *sigh*

This is not a function of GCC but of the GNU linker.  If you don't need the
GNU linker, then don't use it.  I have GCC installed on my home machine,
without the GNU linker, and I habe no problems at all.

The GNU linker does handle g++ constructors/destructors for you, otherwise
you need to install collect.  GNU ld also has better error messages if
you're having problems.  But it's slower, takes more memory. and doesn't
support shared libraries.
