Just use "gnu-as" (often called "gas") instead of SUNW's 
"/usr/ccs/bin/as" and (a patched) 0.7.2 will also compile on x86, not 
only on SPARC Solaris.
On Solaris10 or 11_nevada it is not required to custom-build gcc for 
doing so anymore, just use "/usr/sfw/bin/gcc". It will then use gas, but 
still not gnu-ld.
However, it works.
