The problem is with initializers in QuickWidget? macros from wtools.h.
The solution is to change look of initializers to be compiled even with buggy parser, or wait for next Sun Studio update.

Current Sun Studio users may use the attached patch. The patch does not affect behaviour of not buggy C99 compilers (e.g. GCC).
