I don't have access to any Solaris systems, so I can't be of direct
help.  I do know that we have a Solaris/gcc system in the samba build
farm, so someone has gotten this working.

If you look up the INO64_T define, it is based on the uint64 define.
That is defined in rsync.h based on various configure-determined flags
(which you can find in config.h).  You'll have to dig through these
defines to see what definition your system is using and determine why
that is wrong (and hopefully figure out what definition would be right).  
Once you get the right uint64 value, it would be nice to fix configure
so that it determines this automatically.
