Hi.  I'm putting together a development system for Solaris drivers.
My questions are as to how suitable gcc would be for this, as opposed
to Sun tools.  I need concrete answers to give the project leader who
has raised the following objections to using GNU tools:

He wants to know if you can use them to do kernel-level debugging.

He wants to know how tight the code produced is.

He wants to know how "support" compares to the support given by Sun
for their tools.


Our product is a comm board, and initially we will be developing
Solaris 2.x drivers for it.  We expect to be doing development on a
SparcClassic (unless someone suggests something better suited) with a
couple of old Sun 3's as xterminals and a SPARC-1 as a testbed.

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the trouble to reply.
