This is somewhat hackish workaround :). Better fix as. Info from 
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#*-*-solaris*

*********************************************************************
Sun as 4.X is broken in that it cannot cope with long symbol names. A 
typical error message might look similar to the following: 

/usr/ccs/bin/as: "/var/tmp/ccMsw135.s", line 11041: error: can't 
compute value of an expression involving an external symbol. 

This is Sun bug 4237974. This is fixed with patch 108908-02 and has 
been fixed in later (5.x) versions of the assembler.
