Hi all,
I was testing some exploit on my solaris 8 box.

the function:

unsigned long get_sp(void)
{
        __asm__("mov %sp,%i0");
}

doesn't work if compiled with the gcc 3.3.2, the address returned by the function will be the current PC.
If compiler with gcc 3.2 work fine.

any idea?

Thanks in advance
