Thanks for your inspection of the patches. For the above one you are in
principle right, but while the script is not required at
all kdump.sh.solaris7 does the proper thing also for intel solaris. I
simply added mechanically sunx86_57 where sun4x_57 ocurred in the scripts
and fixed then, what did not work.

This explains also the above change, which is really wrong, as there is no
such thing like solaris for intel64. Thanks for pointing this out.

That again was taken from the corresponding sparc solaris file for 5.7
While I would have expected there a line #define AFS_USR_SUN7_ENV        1
as well, it was missing in the original file. So I left it out as well.
A grep trough the sources showed, that only AFS_USR_SUN5_ENV seems to be
really used, therefore I guess, it is a flaw in the original file without
any consequences.
