Alas, it is not that easy. First, you cannot just unconditionally add
that without breaking architectures that are using clang, which doesn't
have the separate stdc++fs library.

Next up, I did try with some glue around it to only add it for sparc64,
but it still fails the same way. The build is ignoring the addition to
LDFLAGS (probably ignoring LDFLAGS completely).
