Understood.  As I mentioned earlier[1], I'd done sparc builds, but
completely missed the fact that sparc didn't have 8250 enabled
by default. Good intentions, but bad execution.  Sorry about
the fallout.

It only uses suncore.h for sunserial_register_minors (and unreg).
Would you like it better if I killed all ifdefs and the include
and used an incantation of weak instead?  Might be cleaner....
