[cups.general] Compile for 1.4.5 failing on Solaris 10 Update 9 w/recent critical patch update

[Michael Sweet]

This is CUPS STR #3718:

    http://www.cups.org/str.php?L3718

Basically Solaris is reporting that it has both statfs and statvfs, and we are preferring statfs over statvfs. However, Solaris' statfs isn't like anybody else's and we really want to use statvfs.

We'll likely be rolling a 1.4.6 release with a fix for this and a few other issues that slipped through fairly quickly.

I'd like to get the most current version (which is running fine for me under OS X) up and running, though, and would appreciate any help in doing so.
