I started to have issues with the Solaris provided linker some times ago.
Lately I stumbled again on a different behavior of the public build farm
and the one that I'm using privately.

On the public build-farm the linker version is:

ld: Software Generation Utilities - Solaris Link Editors: 5.10-1.500

On my build-farm the linker version is:

ld: Software Generation Utilities - Solaris Link Editors: 5.10-1.1505

Their behavior is different, with the oldest version I have undefined
symbols when with the newer one those symbols are, rightly, found and
consequently defined.

I analyzed the context/environment and everything is similar on both
platforms with the linkers exceptions.

Even the debugging options are different, e.g., -Doutput=file is not
supported.

I have a test case, quite convoluted, that I can provide if somebody
bother to assess.

Remark 1: on my build farm, Solaris release is 10 8/11 s10x_u10wos_17b X86

Remark 2: the same issues raises on the SPARC based systems.

TIA
