MC on Solaris

Hi, Maksym!

Thank you for your information!  It's very important to know that MC can
be compiled by compilers other than gcc and that it compiles in 64-bit
environment.

I have just committed a patch that makes it possible to compile the CVS
version of MC on Solaris (tested on Intel Solaris 8 only).  Note that the
large file support is now default.

I'll appreciate if you check that the current snapshot from
http://www.red-bean.com/~proski/ compiles on your systems.

I'm not surprized that MC without large file support has problems with
large files or "large sets" of files.  I have no plans to fix it since
large file support is now default and people using --disable-largefile
should get what they want - less code and less emulated arithmetics.
