Certainly not yet, for the reason mentioned in the comment you cite:
when I first developed the patch, I tried this, but gld failed to link
any objects with ELFOSABI_NONE.  Until I can guarantee interoperabitlity
with vendor tools, even on older Solaris 2 versions where Sun ld doesn't
set/support ELFOSABI_SOLARIS, I won't make this change.

It is on my agenda, but not of the highest priority right now.
