[Qemu-trivial] [PATCH v2] Fix linking relocatable objects on Sparc

[James Clarke]

On Sparc, gcc implicitly passes --relax to the linker, but -r is
incompatible with this. Therefore, if --no-relax is supported, it should
be passed to the linker.

Hi Peter,
Sorry about that, I wasn't building in a git repository, so werror was
set to no (I was unaware of the configure script doing so). I have now
tested it with werror enabled, and it works (and could reproduce the
error with the previous version).

I reworked the test slightly to mirror what the Makefile rules actually
do, as trying to combine the compilation and ld -r steps doesn't work
when CLFAGS contains -pie, which was leading to x86_64 believing that
--no-relax was not a valid option.

Regards,
James
