[rescue] GCC 3.0 Solaris 8

[Matthew Braun]

I ran into a problem with the Sunfreeware version of GCC 2.95.3 and
3.0.3 in that it unnecessarially requires sys/cdefs.h (which apparently
is not usually around) if you're compiling C++ apps that use iostreams.
>From what I've read, 2.95.2 does not exhibit this behavior.

IINASA (I am not a Solaris Admin), so YMMV.
