I get this error on Solaris 10 Sparc with GCC 5.2, same for
Solaris 11 Sparc with GCC 5.2:

>   CC       rawmemchr.o
> rawmemchr.c: In function 'rawmemchr':

Compilation on Solaris 11 x86, 32 and 64 bit work fine with
Oracle Studio 12.4.

On Solaris 11 Sparc with Oracle Studio 12.4 it works for 32 bit,
for 64 bit I get an error in the testsuite:

> FAIL: test-timespec
> ===================
> 
> test-timespec.c:138: assertion 'cmp (a, b) == sign (i - j)' failed
> FAIL test-timespec (exit status: 262)

On Solaris 9 Sparc with GCC 4.6 I still get this, probably because the
change you proposed in not in the release tarball. I’d happily test if the
updated tarballs are bootstrapped:

>   CC       error.o
> error.c:112:1: error: function declaration isn't a prototype 
> [-Werror=strict-prototypes]

I would like to set up buildbot, to which repository? The one at Savannah?
Do you have a preferred branch?
  git://git.savannah.gnu.org/diffutils.git


Best regards
