nah .. where is the fun in that ?

Solaris people will want a functional git anyways .. so I may as well get
that into the catalog here.

My real issue with samba is the nasty errors I get during linkage. With
GCC 4.3.2 I see this :

sometimes the process feels very voodoo spooky because I am quite careful
with compiler options. With Sun Studio 11 I get the same sort of error
message but with less detail.

quite annoying.
