Sun Studio has had the same C++ ABI since version 5, much longer in fact than
it's had the name "Sun Studio", so I don't think the exact version is relevant
here.   (If it was g++, which changes C++ ABI's more regularly, I agree it would
be important.)

The docs for it on docs.sun.com call it the "Sun Studio C++ Compiler", so I
would use that name.   It refers to the version 5 & later ABI as "Standard
Mode" on:
