Well, actually, there are some Sun-related bits of code in netlib.c - 
look for "sun" - some code for processor affinity that is ifdef __sun.

As for whether it needs Sun (I presume Solaris) specific code beyond 
what is there, we'll need some folks with more Solaris expertise to 
chime-in.  Particularly I suppose on the use of DLPI under Solaris.

happy benchmarking,
