Here's a proposed patch to install.texi to document the problem. Note
that I've also removed the obsolete assertion that one must configure
with --disable-multilib on non-buggy systems.

* gcc/doc/install.texi (Specific): --disable-multilib now
should work on Solaris 7 and later, unless Sun bug 4747851 is
in effect; in that case, describe a workaround (for gcc) and a
fix (for Solaris).
