Hi Scott,

You may find a problem building under Solaris 2.6 with references to
'struct rlimit64' this may be cured by either removing the line

#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64

in the config.h file or adding the lines

/* Define if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS also needs _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE defined */
#define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE 1

to config.h this is due to a bug in the AC_SYS_LARGEFILE macro used in
configure.ac

	Good luck,
	-- Mark
