Rationale for just assuming an XSI shell for now was that users must be
pretty desparate to try to build using the MSVC compiler on Solaris.
Does wine work on Solaris? If so, then that is at least a theoretical
possibility; but in this case, since 'archive' is a new feature and thus
no reason to fear regressions, I'm willing to just give this test
balloon a try.
