Okay, I figured it out:
The Solaris C compiler uses -Wl to pass options to the linker (like
everyone else). But the Solaris C++ compiler uses '-Qoption ld' to pass
options to the linker. Words are not sufficient...
So I guess that this patch is okay if you can assert that #1 above is
true. If it isn't we'll find out soon enough.
