  Obviously if you look at my email you can guess that I tried. In fact
on of these days I should really make it Solaris compatible once again.

But anyway, the problem you see, stems from the fact that on Solaris
we've got: /usr/include/sys/byteorder.h that defined the same macro.
Hence the collision.

If you're interested in working on a patch to make it Solaris 10
friendly -- feel free to contact me.

Thanks,
Roman.
