We were last working with it in August.  On Solaris 9 the version of gcc was 
3.4.1 as that is what was available on www.sunfreeware.com.  On HPUX 11.11 
it was 3.3.3 as that is what was available from HP.

For 11.0 the ld and linker tools cumulative patch recommended version is 
currently PHSS_24303 and is what I installed yesterday.  For 11.11 the ld 
and linker tools cumulative patch we installed PHSS_30966 which was the most 
recent one at the time rather than the recommended version.  The current 
recommended version is PHSS_22535 which is still older than what we 
installed and may not have everything that is required.  The current most 
recent version is PHSS_30970.

For 11.11 we also installed PHCO_23702 which is a "cumulative header file 
patch for prot.h."  It fixes conflicting function prototypes in the header 
files.  I don't remember whether it was kerberos or another open source 
package that needed it.

I can do that.  I attempted a fix using the HPUX 11 +fini and +init options 
last night that appears to have worked but unfortunately I had a subsequent 
build failure which I haven't had a chance to look into yet.  At first 
glance it doesn't seem related.
