   This looks like a compiler bug avoidance measure, and should probably
   be eliminated.

nah, it would make future merges harder for little gain.
   
   Do the sparc and sun3 ports even define "sun" anymore?

i don't think they *ever* did.  currently, i see this:

#define __NetBSD__ 1 
#define __KPRINTF_ATTRIBUTE__ 1 
#define __sparc 1 
#define __GNUC_MINOR__ 7 
#define sparc 1 
#define __unix 1 
#define __unix__ 1 
#define __GNUC__ 2 
#define __sparc__ 1 
#define unix 1 

NetBSD splode.eterna.com.au 1.2A NetBSD 1.2A (_splode_) #330: Tue Sep 17 03:50:26 EST 1996     mrg@splode.eterna.com.au:/orb/q/build/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/_splode_ sparc

the `sparc' and `unix' things are supposedly going away after 1.1.  :)
