Estimated hours taken: 0.25 Branches: main compiler/handle_options.m: scripts/final_grade_options.sh-subr: Make `--target il' imply `--high-level-data'. This is needed to ensure that the `--il' and `--target il' options select the `il' grade, which uses high-level data, rather than the `ilc' grade, which uses low-level data and which is no longer documented because it is not useful; high-level data is better for both efficiency and interoperability and for IL there are no advantages to low-level data.
Reportedly Mercury does not work on Solaris 2.5.1 if it is compiled with
gcc 2.7.x. It should however work fine on Solaris 2.5.1 if you compile
it with gcc 2.8, or if you use gcc 2.7.x with an earlier version of Solaris.
The binary distribution for Solaris that we distribute was compiled
with gcc 2.7.2, so if you have Solaris 2.5.1, you may need to compile
Mercury yourself from our source distribution.
("Solaris 2.x" is also known as "SunOS 5.x".)
