Description

Recent changes to libsmbios (either #12133 or #12138) appear to tickle a build failure on SPARC

ld: fatal: too many symbols require 'small' PIC references:
have 1053, maximum 1024 -- recompile some modules -K PIC.
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Apparently we need C_BIGPICFLAGS/C_BIGPICFLAGS64, similar to the fix for #10391.

Testing:

Checked with wsdiff that this change doesn't modify the output on x86.

Verified that smbios output on my x86 machine is unchanged.
