perhaps one of the build maintainers has a suggestion. For the time
being, I'll juts continue with --enable-libmudflap.

I've now filed
libmudflap/49549 Use of --noinhibit-exec is unportable
libmudflap/49550 Many libmudflap tests fail on Solaris 11/x86

I cannot identify them yet, so any help is appreciated.
