--enable-shared doesn't work on Sun-3

No, that's why I complained about the (seemingly automagically  
generated) --enable-shared build on m68k-next-nextstep3 in May this  
year.

So, on my system, this code is generated in spite of the fact that:

a. My assembler doesn't know how to deal with it (because it's gas).
b. It's a Sun trick, which should mean it shouldn't be generated
   *at all* on a m68k-next-nextstep3 system.

Then it might be advisable to have egcs *not* generate this code,  
except for a m68k-sun-* system, right ? (And generate an error  
message in case someone specifies -fpic on the command line, because  
it can't be dealt with anyhow ;-).
