Solaris GCC supports the standard -shared flag parameter. TBH, I'm not sure where the -G came from and why? If nobody has any objections I would like to remove -G switch for Solaris GCC???

ps. the -G switch works fine when building 32 bit but breaks when building 64 bit with errors like:

fatal: relocation error: R_AMD64_PC32: .... value 0x2800c20d934 does not fit
