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.
