Thanks for your reply. This works fine indeed.
However, I want one GNU as/ld version of GCC and one Sun as/ld version.
I managed to build both of them. I will test and eventually use the Sun
as/ld version, in order to be able to share libraries with people using
the Sun as/ld. Once you begin to use GNU as/ld, you get stuck with it,
because GNU ld is not compatible with Sun ld - see for example those
nasty warnings:
section .stabstr: malformed string table, initial or final byte
I don't know if this is a Sun or GNU, an as or ld bug?
