    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?
