-Known platform issues
----------------------
-
-*   Suse linux 9.1 is shipped with a patched GCC version 3.3.3, having the
-    rpm named `gcc-3.3.3-41`. That version has a serious optimization bug
-    that makes it unusable for building the Erlang emulator. Please
-    upgrade GCC to a newer version before building on Suse 9.1. Suse Linux
-    Enterprise edition 9 (SLES9) has `gcc-3.3.3-43` and is not affected.
-
-*   `gcc-4.3.0` has a serious optimizer bug. It produces an Erlang emulator
-    that will crash immediately. The bug is supposed to be fixed in
-    `gcc-4.3.1`.
-
-*   FreeBSD had a bug which caused `kqueue`/`poll`/`select` to fail to detect
-    that a `writev()` on a pipe has been made. This bug should have been fixed
-    in FreeBSD 6.3 and FreeBSD 7.0. NetBSD and DragonFlyBSD probably have or
-    have had the same bug. More information can be found at:
-
-    *   <http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/kern/sys_pipe.c>
-    *   <http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arch/2007-September/006790.html>
-
-*   `getcwd()` on Solaris 9 can cause an emulator crash. If you have
-    async-threads enabled you can increase the stack size of the
-    async-threads as a temporary workaround. See the `+a` command-line
-    argument in the documentation of `erl(1)`. Without async-threads the
-    emulator is not as vulnerable to this bug, but if you hit it without
-    async-threads the only workaround available is to enable async-threads
-    and increase the stack size of the async-threads. Oracle has however
-    released patches that fixes the issue:
-
-    > Problem Description: 6448300 large mnttab can cause stack overrun
-    > during Solaris 9 getcwd

-    *   <https://getupdates.oracle.com/readme/112874-40>
-    *   <https://getupdates.oracle.com/readme/114432-29>
-
-*  `sed` on Solaris seem to have some problems. For example on
-   Solaris 8, the BSD `sed` and XPG4 `sed` should be avoided.
-   Make sure `/bin/sed` or `/usr/bin/sed` is used on the Solaris
-   platform.
