Subject: bug#42675: Solaris 11.3 x86_64 support
Date: Sun, 2 Aug 2020 10:00:35 -0400
Hi Everyone,

I'm submitting this one because etc/MACHINES says Solaris is supported.

I'm building on Solaris 11.3 using x86_64 per [1]. I use
'--build=x86_64-sun-solaris' because Autoguess chooses 32-bit instead
of 64-bit (even with CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS including -m64).

  $ ./configure ...
  checking for xcrun... no
  checking for GNU Make... gmake
  checking build system type... x86_64-sun-solaris2
  checking host system type... x86_64-sun-solaris2
  configure: error: Emacs does not support 'x86_64-sun-solaris2' systems.
  If you think it should, please send a report to bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org.

But according to etc/MACHINES:

  $ cat etc/MACHINES
  ...

  ** Solaris

    On Solaris it is also possible to use either GCC or Solaris Studio
    to build Emacs, by pointing ./configure to the right compiler ...
