I've had trouble building Python extensions on Solaris if the Python
install I'm using was built with the '--enable-shared' option.   In
tracking this down, it appears that the code in
'distutils/command/build_ext.py' contains a number of statements to
detect a similar situation for other platforms and explicitly add the
'lib' dir option for the linker, but there is no similar detection for
Solaris.

I've attached a patch that fixes this and solves the problem for me.  I
simply extended the checking for 'linux' and 'gnu' platforms to also
apply for 'sunos' platforms.
