Hi Jean-François,

Some works were made to make Gambas compiling on Solaris, but the work to 
manage CPU endianness is not terminated, so the crash on Sparc is absolutely 
normal.

As for this crash with .info file, I think it is the sea serpent of 
incompatibility between KDE malloc and GLibc malloc. I'm going to see if I 
can do something.

Note: info is nothing to do woth texinfo, it is only files containing the 
description of a component. You can open it with a text editor to see what it 
contains.

Regards,
