Could a Solaris user confirm whether C52 is indeed completely obsolete
or not in the year 2011 ?

      I would just ignore it :-) when the Illumos (the only Solaris I care
about personally) guys get to building LibreOffice, I imagine they will
use gcc (free software) anyway.

I've asked some remaining *solaris users about their choice of compiler.

The immense majority now seems to use gcc.
Even the Blastwawe guys [1] plan to only use gcc in the future.

AFAIK, there's no real reason left not to remove support for the old Sun
compiler.
