   Well, solib.exp only runs on HPUX and if there are other shared
   library tests, I didn't see them.

But on a system with shared libraries, you'd always get some basic
testing of the shared library code by running the ordinary tests.

Anyway, it is important that somebody tests Jim's patch on SunOS 4,
since that platform has a shared library implementation that is quite
different from the one used on Linux, and yet uses the same code.  We
have seen in the past, that fixing one breaks the other :-(.
