Good.  I've exercised that before manually by setting
ac_cv_func_mmap_fixed_mapped=no in the environment for the build.

True: I had to jump through some hoops to distinguish 11.4 from 11.3 in
gcc/config.gcc.  That said, on the GCC side of things, everything but
11.4 is now obsolete and the support removed.  I honestly wouldn't worry
about previous versions: gld use on Solaris is rather rare, and I doubt
many people build recent binutils (with older gcc) on Solaris 10 ;-)

Fine, thanks.
