What I was hoping to do with the define test was to throw an error if we
don't find intimate shared memory on Solaris, but the define doesn't
work fir i386/Solaris so we are probably better going with the define as
you suggest --- I just hope we don't fail to include a file and somehow
miss it on some version of Solaris.
Change applied.
