It's gcc-3.3.3 and 3.3.5 came with those platfoms, not very good versions, but they had absolutely no problems with _ANY_ other php versions I compiled up to 5.2.9. Looks like it's php5.3.0RC3 brought the code that gcc 3.3.x can't compile. Regarding Solaris/Sparc, I have no gdb there to submit stacktraces. Will try to install and grab bt later when I get more time for this. Regarding Windows, I've already pinpointed the problem and submitted a report.
