That won't work very well - if SPARC wants 2.91.66 then we need to support that compiler on x86 as well. So that people won't use later-supported compiler features. And because many compiler bugs are platform-independent, so they will be detected (and worked around) on x86.
wrt the __func__ thing: is it possible to do:
#if (compiler version test) #define __FUNCTION__ __func__ #endif
to kill the 3.x warning?
