this proved to be a bit more difficult this time:

* The earliest trace in the solaris-userland repo is for the import of
  gdb 6.8 by George Vasick (gdb.solib-svr4.patch), at which point the
  patch contained both amd64 and sparcv9 parts.

  The sparcv9 part was committed (independently discovered, I suppose)
  by yourself:

	https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-02/msg00026.html

* However, the gdb 6.8 part goes back to the OpenSolaris sfw repo, which
  to the best of my knowledge has never been available outside of Sun.
  I happend to have some old tarballs of the sources around, though,
  where the patch is present in sfw-src-b147-20100818.tar.bz2 (still gdb
  6.8), but missing in the earlier sfw-src-b101a-20081022.tar.bz2 (gdb
  6.3).

* Information from my contacts within Oracle seems to confirm George's
  authorship, so this seems to be the best we can do here.

I believe that's enough software archaeology for today ;-)

	Rainer
