Subject: RE: Patch for Makefile, concerning Solaris x86

Alex,

I was thinking about doing it in the global LDFLAGS, but that would affect
all builds.  Wouldn't that cause a problem?  (I haven't checked yet, if it
would).

All solaris-* targets need it (this means solaris-sparc* and *-cc ones
as well), albeit only for the tgtsnarf program in the jumbo patch.  It
is easier to add the options to the global LDFLAGS rather than to try
to do it for tgtsnarf only.  In fact, the jumbo patch is already dirty
in this aspect anyway - it similarly unnecessarily links some programs
against OpenSSL.  So we can continue this "tradition" for now...

Thanks,

Alexander
