hi Gary,

i've just added a section on checking out the release branch here:

http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Native_Build

oh, and i definitely second the other Michael's recommendations against
SunStudio: i'd personally only use that again if somebody paid me for
it... and i guess by now it won't be any more work to resurrect the
Solaris/GCC port that OOo used to have many years ago, than to get it to
build again with SunStudio and it's at times peculiar interpretation of
the C++ standard (and don't get me started on its code gen bugs...).
