Comment 12 for bug 6883

Thomas,

the code has been written to run on both v8 and v8+/v9.

There is a test at runtime to discover the machine type. This was not
implemented for linux sparc so i think it defaults to run on v8 anyway.
Please see http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=30774

But the shared library is built with v8+ flags because it includes v8+ code,
although the code which runs depends on the machine type.

Is there a problem running this on v8? can you post some error message?

If this library cannot run then it will be possible to make a separate sal
library for v8.

thanks

jim
