+# Note: 
+# The EPICS_HOST_ARCH solaris-sparc-gnu is new for base release R3.14
+# so existing R3.13 applications, when HOST_ARCH is set to solaris and
+# when built with R3.14, will look for base solaris-sparc directories
+# and not solaris-sparc-gnu. If you plan to build R3.13 applications 
+# against a solaris-sparc-gnu built R3.14 base, you should set
+# ANSI=GCC and CPLUSPLUS=G++ in base/config/CONFIG_SITE.Host.solaris
+# and change ARCH_solaris=solaris-sparc to ARCH_solaris=solaris-sparc-gnu
+# in base/config/CONFIG_COMPAT.
