It's really quite simple, the Sun C compiler (acc) does not understand the -Wl flag, rather it passes the -R and -h options onto the linker verbatim.
Given the only two (realistic) compiler choices under Solaris are gcc and acc it makes sense to support then both 'out of the box'. I keep a similar patch to Denis's (without the wierd hi-ascii characters in his) lying around for when i build a Solaris version. Regards, Lee Kindness.
