Yes, I have gpc 1.2 (2.7.2) compiled and running under both SunOS and
Solaris.  It is true that there are still some bugs in gpc that allow
gpc1 to core dump.  Those should be reported.  Several of my "standard"
programs compile and run with no problem.  In fact, we have had
our students using gpc as their primary PASCAL compiler for a couple
of years.
