I can see a "if (solaris)" in this file, is this a very special case
or do I get a boolean
"darwin" in the caml "context" too? (the if solaris is in a part
looking like C - I do not know noweb nor see a x86asm.c generated -
maybe it's just a doco part?)

at least gcc-linux.c compile fine and end up in the libqc--.a
I don't know anything about stack layout on linux and darwin, though!
