+GCC 3.3 triggers a bug in version 5.0 Alpha 03/27/98 of the Sun assembler,
+which causes a bootstrap failure when linking the 64-bit shared version of
+libgcc. A typical error message is:
+
+@smallexample
+ld: fatal: relocation error: R_SPARC_32: file libgcc/sparcv9/_muldi3.o:
+  symbol <unknown>:  offset 0xffffffff7ec133e7 is non-aligned.
+@end smallexample
+
+This bug has been fixed in the final 5.0 version of the assembler.
