Yep, this seems tricky.  AS_SPARC64_FLAG is indeed a property of the
host, but it is being used to infer properties of the target platform.


I believe we could solve this particular problem by moving the
definition of TRANSFER_FROM_TRAMPOLINE into sol2.h, but the problem of
not having AS_SPARC64_FLAG when including sol2-sld-64.h may bite us
later.

One possibility I can think of to work around this problem is to
generate a separate header file, at configure time, containing the
appropriate #define, and forcing sol2-sld-64.h to include it.  But I
don't find this solution much elegant :-(
