Do you think it makes sense to change from -G to -shared unconditionally for Solaris?
I've done this change, after digging just a little in the docs.
According to https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E77782_01/html/E77792/gqexw.html#OSGCCgqfch, --shared was added as an alias to -G in Oracle Solaris Studio 12.4, and according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle_Developer_Studio#History, that version was released in 2014. So I don't expect any breakage from this change. Obviosly, it can't be "supported" in any meaningful way without someone actually using these compilers committing to regularly testing Nettle.
