The fix H.J. implemented for PR gas/22791 in the thread starting at
[PATCH] x86-64: Treat PC32 relocation with branch as PLT32
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2018-02/msg00065.html
is causing problems on Solaris/x86. The native linker is strongly
preferred there, and there's no intention of implementing the linker
optimization he plans there. Besides, the kernel runtime linker,
otherwise has no need to deal with that reloc at all, and instead of
adding (possibly even more) workarounds with no benefit, it seems
appropriate to disable the R_X86_64_PLT32 generation as branch marker on
Solaris/x86 in the first place.
The patch itself is trivial, the only complication is adapting the
testsuite. Since I've found no way to have conditional sections in the
.d files, I've instead used the solution already found elsewhere of
having separate .d files for the affected tests in an i386/solaris
subdirectory and skipping the original ones.
Tested on amd64-pc-solaris2.11 and x86_64-pc-linux-gnu without
regressions.
