Because Ulf overlooked the ELF vs. a.out difference, i.e. the two entries were
_NOT_ identical! This way OpenSSL 0.9.4 at least compiles again under FreeBSD
2 and 3. For 0.9.5-dev I'll try to fix the stuff in a more general way to also
allow FreeBSD 4 and other variants.

./config sences whole range of SPARC instruction sets. Do note that
it favors Sun C now if both gcc and cc 4.2 or later are present!

This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.

better suited for finding what went wrong in case that some compiler
versions create an output we can't parse.

   echo $GCCVAR | sed ...
instead of
   echo "$GCCVAR" | sed ...
to process it as intended.

-mcpu=ultrasparc), don't silently step to solaris-sparc-gcc, which
would unnecessarily use less efficient assembler code.
Instead, use new configuration variant solaris-usparc-oldgcc;
this also means that someone who reads the output of ./config will
notice that it may be advantegeous to upgrade gcc.
