      The predefined macros fron a Sun SC-series compilers are
                   __sun
                   __unix
                   __SUNPRO_C=0x500
                   __sparc (SPARC)
                   __sparcv9 (SPARC with -xarch=v9|v9a)
                   __i386 (x86)
                   __SVR4
Not that those are double leading underscores.  From memory
and a quick check on linux, GCC defines a partially overlapping 
set including __linux and __sun.
