>Description:
While building www/firefox package with SunStudio 11 compilers on Sparc Solaris, I got the following error:

The problem here is the following file:

/usr/pkg/lib/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h

it has the following macro:

#define G_HAVE_GNUC_VARARGS 1

SunStudio C compiler supports GNUC_VARARGS, however C++ compiler does not. When devel/glib2 is configured and built, it detects that GNUC_VARARGS are supported by C compiler, so it defines the above macro. Package www/firefox uses glib2 headers, but the compiler used during compilation is C++, so it fails, because Sun C++ compiler does not support GNUC_VARARGS.

To solve the problem I had to manuall edit /usr/pkg/lib/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h and define the macro as follows:

#ifndef __cplusplus
# define G_HAVE_GNUC_VARARGS 1
#endif

I think this needs to be done during devel/glib2 configure and build. I'm not sure how glibconfig.h file is generated, so the scripts that generate that file need to be modified.
