The sun* sysname scheme is in addition to the general problems of
having a sysname more broken than others. It is more a historic than a
likely choice of abbrevation. At pdc.kth.se and at e.kth.se we will go
for <arch>_<dist>. That maps allready to for example rs_aix51. We will
follow this with i386_rh9 and ia64_deb30, too. So sparc_sol10 would be
a good choice but probably sun4x_sol10 is an alternative choice for
the historically bound.
