The patch adds an extra else in src/template/solaris that means the
assembly file is not properly picked up.

Also the claim that Sun's cc understands C preprocessor doesn't hold
true for me:

/usr/local/SUNWspro/bin/cc -Xa -v -DSUNOS4_CC -g -c tas.s
Assembler: tas.s
"tas.s", line 9 : Illegal mnemonic
"tas.s", line 9 : Syntax error
"tas.s", line 9 : Illegal mnemonic
"tas.s", line 9 : Illegal mnemonic

This is with cc -V
