GDB 4.18 on SVR5: missed it by a hair

Rats.
The round of optimizations we performed on configure.host didn't
make it to configure.tgt. So SVR5 gets detected as SVR4.0 so it
gets /proc filesystem handling silently wrong. :-(

I posit that all Unixwares were SVR4.2 based and there were no 4.2's
that weren't also 4.2MP.
Anybody that is still running the (never officially released and
probably 6 or 7 years old) SVR4.1/ES or SVR4.1/MP products on x86s
deserves anguish anyway...
If you aren't brave enough to optimize the redundant UW and 4.2*
combinations away, at least pleast add the line that treats sysv5*
as i386v42mp.
Thanx,
RJL
