Right, I'm currently running Solaris 8-11 bootstraps. Solaris 11
results look excellent so far: while I'm still seeing the 3 timeouts
from PR go/48501, this bootstrap predates your patches for this.
Solaris 10 is only slightly worse, but I think it's best to file a
separate PR for the issue(s) I'm seeing there.
Solaris 8 and 9 suffer from two problems:
* Initially, bootstrap failed since the setcontext TLS test failed. I
could trace this to the wrong (non-standard) interpretation of
uc_stack.ss_sp as top of stack on Solaris 8 and 9/SPARC. I've got a
patch (hack for that) which I'll post once testing completes.
* All execution tests fail since Solaris 8 and 9/SPARC libm.so lacks
log2 and trunc, so all tests die with undefined references. Should I
file a separate PR for that?

No, and I'm obsoleting IRIX 6.5 support in 4.7 for a reason :-) Still,
given that Go support worked reasonably well some time ago, I'd like to
get it working again if possible. An IRIX bootstrap with the latest
patches is currently running. It also need a hack around the setcontext
TLS test, which SEGVs somewhere in the depths of pthread_join. I've no
idea yet why this happens.

I'll make it IRIX-specific once the Solaris bootstraps have finished.
Thanks a lot for all your help.
