Right.   I would like to smuggle in a patch that enables bi-arch
for Solaris 7+ by default, even though I know that the
SPARCv9 code generator/runtime support isn't finished yet.  It works
for a lot of code, though (most notably missing is quad fp support)

(patch was posted to egcs-patches before; the thing most up for discussion
is defaulting to bi-arch mode for SPARC for anything over 2.0-2.6)

A sticky problem is teh assmebler; the S8 and patched S& assembler
require %g[23] registers to be declared w/ the .register pseudo op;
the S7 FCS assembler doesn't know that option.

If gcc is configured on a system with that patch, it will fail on
one installed without and vice versa.

Workaround is using -fno-app-regs; in principle, all GNU libraries
should be compiled w/ -fno-app-regs as well (as libraries are
not allowed to use the %g2 and %g3 registers for their own
purposes, not even as scratch.
