[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] Solaris/x86 sysi86() type conflict

[Derek E. Lewis]

sysi86() is used in loader/ldt_keeper.c.  sysi86() was introduced in
Solaris 2.0 and was compatible until Solaris 9.  There was a tweak in
Solaris 10 with the args -- the function went from receiving them in a
struct to them being unpacked.

The current ldt_keeper.c assumes that sysi86()'s args aren't unpacked,
and thus provides a "correct" declaration.  I've added a new test to the
'configure' script to test for the existence of the new sysi86()
declaration.

This patch avoids a build failure that would normally occur because of
the type conflict in releases >= 10 of Solaris.  This bug should be
addressed before pre8 is released, as it breaks all builds on Solaris 10
or greater on x86.

Thanks,
