[PATCH] Fixes for GNU ld on amd64 Solaris

[Michael Wetherell]

Hi,

ld has been giving the following error on Solaris x86-64:
/usr/lib/amd64/crti.o: file not recognized: File format not recognized 

I found under a debugger that it's because of an unknown header type 
0x6ffffff6 (SHT_SUNW_signature). Then searching for that, I discovered 
that they've already fixed in OpenSolaris, and that they also added two 
more: SHT_SUNW_dof and SHT_SUNW_syminfo.

The patch below ignores these three headers and also sets LIBPATH_SUFFIX 
and ELF_INTERPRETER_NAME. I've checked that gcc now builds 
--with-gnu-ld both natively and as a cross compiler, and compiled some 
large projects with it.

Regards,
Mike
