Due to reasons like this, we would like to support a minimal span of 
versions for the solstudio compiler. So if you are alright with 
upgrading to 12u4, we'd prefer to drop support for 12u3 completely. 
Filtering out error options like this is quite a pain, otherwise.

I believe there are few community users that care much about Solaris and 
solstudio. Had you not told me you were building on Solaris, I would 
have guessed only Oracle did so. This gives us, I believe, a better 
chance at enforcing stricter restrictions on the set of supported 
versions, compared to the situation for e.g. gcc and linux.
