I did, thanks.

I know and usually act on that rule.  I wasn't asking so much for
approval but rather for suggestions for the build side of things.

I can try if the build maintainers need that.  So far, I can only see
use of the new generic libgcc/config/t-crtfm on sparc targets other
than Solaris, and $< instead of pathnames in libgcc/config/i386/t-crtfm,
gld detection and substitution of cpu_type.

I didn't since apart from the t-crtfm stuff (which has been tested on
Solaris already), there's nothing that could affect them.

Thanks.
