PostgreSQL on Solaris/SPARC with gcc

Hello,

I have a report from compiling PostgreSQL 6.5.3 on Solaris/SPARC with gcc/ld
(it was not run by me, I was ask to help to solve this problem). Everything
goes OK (with template solaris_sparc_gcc autodetected when running
configure) but when trying to load plpgsql or other loaded module it woes
with 

ERROR:  Load of file /usr/local/pgsql/lib/plpgsql.so failed: ld.so.1:
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster: fatal: relocation error: file
/usr/local/pgsql/lib/plpgsql.so: symbol CurrentMemoryContext: referenced
symbol not found

it is caused by the fact that the symbol CurrentMemoryContext is not
exported from the main executable (postmaster). The solution is to use
"-export-dynamic" switch when linking postgres executable (it is used on
Linux).

I think it will require a new system specific makefile. The
Makefile.solaris_sparc is done for solaric_sparc_cc template. More details
can be send.

  I ran many versions of Postgres (6.4.2, 6.5, 6.5.2, 7.0beta1) on Sun
SPARC Solaris 2.5.1, compiled with gcc 2.8.1 and never saw any such
problem...

Couldn't we just test for gcc in general on any platform? For right now
you might get away with doing a little ifeq($(CC),gcc) action in the
solaris makefile, but that's bogus in the long run.
