Studio 11 patches

Thanks to Misha & other postings on the latest Sun Studio 11 patches.

I was able to sucessfuly download and install the 120760-06 patch for my SPARC version of Sun Studio 11 dev. environment. This is running S10 GA (03/05) and is used only to NFS serve the SUNWspro directories. No problem in building user & kernel binaries for SPARC i.e. on S10 U1 & S10 U2 environments.

When I installed 120759-06 for my AMD 64 based Sun Studio 11 environment running S10 U1 (01/06), I run into problems. My AMD64 based kernel module won't load and I get the _memcpy symbol errors. I appear to have hit 6396272. The workaround there did not work -- including cases where I tried increasing the memcpy threshold

I currently use "-Wu,-xmodel=kernel" in my CFLAGS Any idea how to deploy the correct workaround ?

If I wish to use 120760-06 or 120759-06, I dont need to add other Sun Studion patches -- correct ?

Thanks & kudos to the Sun Studio team for a great product.
