thanks, is there a reason why this defaults to on for linux/x86, but
needs to be specified explicitly on Solaris?  Also, it would be nice
if it appeared in the output of =ABconfigure --help=BB.

Apparently the avcall tests fail:

,----

| J f(J,int,J):({47,11},2,{73,55})->{9,902231815}

I'm afraid that the error in avcall-sparc.s isn't immediately evident
to me :-)
