This is SolarisStudio 12u3 which is a completely different compiler than the
SunStudio 12 which I am using. TL;DR: marketing does not want version 13.

So we have:
- SunStudio 11:		Sun C 5.8
- SunStudio 12:		Sun C 5.9
- SunStudio 12u1:	Sun C 5.10
- SunStudio 12u2:	Sun C 5.11
- SolarisStudio 12u3:	Sun C 5.12

As you see the "u" versions are new major versions.

No, I too get warnings with --enable-gcc-warnings regardless of the Sun compiler version:

Probably, but I have no idea what it could be.
