The attached change to liboil causes it to be built with GCC when building on x86 platforms, so that hardware acceleration support is enabled. The new patch uses the getisax(2) kernel function so that hardware acceleration support is determined using the correct Solaris kernel interface.
I have verified that liboil functions are 4-6 times faster using GCC so that the GCC-style assembly code for hardware acceleration gets compiled, and we don't just use the default C-implementations.
