Solaris/PowerPC was a shortlived Solaris port with limited hardware
support. It was released with Solaris 2.5.1 back in 1996, with support
removed again only a year later in Solaris 2.6. Since this is long
obsolete, this patch removes the remains of the support.
Tested by a cross to ppc-unknown-linux-gnu to ascertain the build didn't
get broken.
