That seems less than ideal.  If there seems to be no release of Solaris
with this mythical support file, it doesn't seem too terrible to just get
rid of it.

Okay, so, AIUI, no release ever contained this file, __cxa_exit isn't
provided, and that using -fno-cxa-exit does (and really should) works well
enough for non-trivial applications.

That -fno-cxa-exit is included by the driver when compiling for Solaris.
