[Aide] Compilation issues on Solaris 10

[John Warburton]

Hi All

I have just managed to compile AIDE 0.15.1 on Solaris 10. It wasn't easy, so
I though I'd share:

System: Solaris 10 Update 8 (10/09) on SPARC, with gcc 3.4.6

First issue was non-obvious need disable static compilation. As per
http://www.mail-archive.com/aide@cs.tut.fi/msg01178.html, it would be nice
to either make a note in configure or either INSTALL/README for Solaris

Next was a problem with the define for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS. It seems it is
trying to redefine what already exists in /usr/include/sys/feature_tests.h.
See below for detail.

The quick & dirty way to get around this was to edit line 6438 in configure
and delete "-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS". See below for a diff

I don't know enough C to work the ifdefs for Solaris to not include this
define. It would be nice to have this incorporated into the build (or tell
me where I went wrong!). I can provide hardware for testing

Regards

John
