I've installed the latest set of Sun compilers (cc, CC, f77/f90/f95, dbx) and
the new sunstudio IDE. They seem fully functional on Athena 9.4 machines
only- the FORTRAN compilers complain about missing libmtsk libraries on
Athena 9.3 machines.
As before, the default is set to create (mostly) static binaries by
default, i.e. binaries that don't need libraries in the locker at
runtime- this is most likely to be an issue for FORTRAN and C++ code.
See /mit/sunsoft_v10/README.dynamic_linking for instructions on how to
do dynamic linking.
To use the new compilers now:
add -f sunsoft_v10
cc [flags] myprogram.c (etc.)
To use the sunstudio IDE:
sunstudio &

I've only done limited testing- any configuration or installation problems
can be reported directly to me. I plan to make this release the default some
time after the general public Athena 9.4 release is out.
