I have managed to get g++ 1.36.2 up and running on the sun386. I had a lot of problems with 1.36.1 in that when I did get the compiler to work it produced code that crashed!
I have listed the changes that I found necessary for 1.36.2 below. I hope that these are of some help.

In crt0.c

the
	__do_global_init()
and
	__do_global_cleanup()

needed to be removed (I put ifndef COFF round them).
