The assembler lives with the Studio compilers as fbe, but once in a
while that version is backported (or provided as a patch) as
/usr/ccs/bin/as.
For Solaris 10, the latest SPARC assembler patch, 118683-08, includes
-xarch=sparc4 support, rev. -07 didn't.
At least in Solaris 11.1, as does as well, not completely sure about
Solaris 11 where it may have only been introduced in an SRU (support
repository update).
