Re: Imake on Solaris 11.2/sparc

Hello!

The initial problem boils down to this change to sun.cf:

--- sun.cf-orig Wed Jul 13 14:04:56 2016
+++ sun.cf      Tue Sep 13 11:58:43 2016

+# if defined(SparcArchitecture) || defined(Sparc64Architecture)
 /* SPARC archictecture requires PLT section in .data be executable, so
    we can only make .bss, not all of .data no-exec on SPARC */
 #   define Mapfile_NoExData /**/

I have just opened PR pkg/51475 for it.

I haven't looked more closely, but I can imagine that there are many 
more similar if clauses. But if it ain't broken... okay... *that* broken...

Many thanks to you, David, for adding the logging feature to imake. 
Today I had the time to seriously look into this problem, and it took 
only a few minutes to come up with the fix.
