(That patch works with many recent levels of Apache 2+.)
+================
+ Solaris:
+
+ On Solaris, better performance may be achieved by using the Sun Studio
+ compiler instead of gcc. As of version 11, it is now free (registration
+ required). Download the compiler from:
+
+ http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/cc/downloads/index.jsp
+
+ If you use Sun Studio, the following compiler flags (CFLAGS) are
+ recommended:
+
+ -XO4 -xchip=generic
+
