It's only used for old NetBSD and OpenBSD releases that used the a.out
executable format.  Most of them switched to ELF a long time ago.
Except perhaps for OpenBSD/m68k, which only switched this year.

So solib-sunos.c can go, and the various a.out NetBSD and OpenBSD
targets can go with it.  I'd appreciate it if the OpenBSD/m68k bits
stay though, such that I can add the necessary ELF support.
