this is what I suspected. It was clear that only a few files were rebuilt, and it tried to link the executables with the wrong libraries. On the long run it might be worth to investigate this issue.

I am a bit surpised, since according to the build log the compiler is not GCC. However the Solaris compiler seems to mimic most of the GCC features.

Unfortunately, SPARC-64 is not yet supported by the JIT compiler. I never had time to do it, and there was no strong requests on this lists to do it (few people said it would be a nice feature, but even they didn't have a sparc system). I would suggest to remove (disable) the sparc64-JIT bot until the CPU is supported.

Thank you very much for setting up these bots. This is a great help for us and the project.

Regards,
Zoltan
