So I added "-rpath-link /mydir/sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1/lib"  
So it looks like this
 %{shared:-G -dy -rpath-link /mydir/sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1/lib
%{!mimpure-text:-z text}}  

Works great!  My laptop can now compile my product faster than than network
based build on a UltraSparc 270Mhz (You should see my Dual PIII 500 linux box
do it).
