rustbuild failures for solaris target

[binarycrusader]

I've been using the (now obsolete) Makefile-based builds successfully for some time now while trying to get rust running on Solaris x86_64 (and from there sparcv9).

However, now that the rustbuild is the build system used for master, I've hit an unexpected regression:

Initially, I thought this would be simple enough to workaround by altering librustc_back/target/solaris_base.rs:

         .. Default::default()
     }

However, after making that change and rebuilding, I still hit the issue.

So I have questions:

1. where is the right place to ensure -lgcc is used for linking here?
2. do I need to apply this fix to the beta snapshot I'm using to build master first or just to master itself before building?
3. shouldn't rust explicitly specifying -lgcc automatically? The gcc documentation appears to imply that libgcc is still needed in most cases, notably when using -nostdlibs (of which -nodefaultlibs appears to be a superset?)

The Solaris linker fails (as expected) here since there's an implicit dependency that's known, but wasn't explicitly named.

Perhaps a solaris block just needs to be added here?

(that's where we add our unwinding runtime dependencies)

@alexcrichton almost, that and one other place needed fixing; I'll send a pull request tomorrow that will fix all of the rustbuild issues I encountered. Thanks!

Awesome, thanks @binarycrusader!
