Comment (by Stephen Clamage <stephen.clamage@…>):

 All Sun compilers always define !__sun when running on Solaris (SunOS).
 Old Sun compilers also defined sun, but that practice stopped some time
 ago. Maybe old versions of gcc or some other vendor's compilers didn't
 follow the practice of defining !__sun. That I don't know. As I said
 before, unless someone knows of a specific reason for checking for sun, I
 suggest checking only for !__sun.
