<DIV>I'm sorry if I am trying to contact all of you, but I was waiting for several months for a straight answer between the KDE developers and the community (even Sun) on this basic question in which all past answers (pre-KDE 3.2.x) </DIV>
<DIV>don't work on Solaris 8 x86. So I first wanted to address the expert developers in libkthml and GCC on why I am seeing a specific error. The rest of kdelibs-3.2.3 seems to compile fine. I have only seen 'relocation' errors when building the libkhtml.la file.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is the failure reported on Solaris 8 x86 (fully patched) using GCC 3.3.3 to compile and KDELIBS 3.2.3 using Sun's 'as' and 'ld' binaries (assembler and linker):</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This same code compiles **CLEANLY** on Solaris 8 SPARC using GCC 3.3.3 to compile KDELIBS 3.2.3 using Sun's ld and as binaries.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Note: When I removed '-rpath {directory}' from the string, the code will compile cleanly to create libkhtml.la' file. But, I could not find any accurate updated information to get this code to compile cleanly on Solaris 8 x86 using GCC 3.3.x/3.4.1 otherwise.</DIV>

<DIV>---> I am willing to dedicate some time and resources to fixing this problem on Solaris x86 with both GCC and/or KDE 3.2.3 (and even KDE 3.3.0 -if needed) if someone</DIV>
<DIV>else is willing to assist me on what will fix this issue (the official way).</DIV>
