310What: Solaris/SunOS syscall and binary support on Sparc
311When: 2.6.26
312Why: Largely unmaintained and almost entirely unused. File system
313 layering used to divert library and dynamic linker searches to
314 /usr/gnemul is extremely buggy and unfixable. Making it work
315 is largely pointless as without a lot of work only the most
316 trivial of Solaris binaries can work with the emulation code.
