Unfortunately I still get the same problem with a freshly-downloaded 
fpcbuild.zip (2.6 + fixes) and Lazarus 1.0 from svn. Working on x86 Linux.

It sounds as though the best course would be if I waited a couple of 
days for the dust to settle.

The object of the exercise is to try to get a few lines related to 
Lazarus 1.0 at the bottom of 
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_on_Solaris since Lazarus/FPC 
has been mentioned elsewhere as a good development environment for Solaris.
