Only arts and parts of kdelibs (dcop, kdecore, kdeui, kio and kparts). I am 
still working on it..

You can fix it manually, I can't remember what you need to change, but it has 
something to do with a some borken C-Flags (gsl thinks some functions are 
missing from libc that are really there, and then tries to replace them) The 
easiest "solution" is to add -zmuldefs to the linking phase. (the only files 
that has this error are tests, and it doesnt break them)

Also when you get to kdelibs you need to edit the generated libtool and remove 
support for --no-undefined. Just search for "-znodefs" and change it to "". 
The reason is that libtool do not support --no-undefined for gcc and KDE thus 
uses the flag in way that is incompatible with Sun Forte where libtool 
supports it. (I have had a long discussion with coolo about it, but I think 
we talked completely past eachother)

There was another one who reported he got all of kdelibs to compile, but I 
dont know how he did it. This is just some of the problems I have 
encountered.
