I had not save the message - no Suns around here :-). It was a month
or so ago in Crafty distribution list, try to wait for response from
there or search in the archive (I guess you can just search keyword
'Sun').

If somebody will say me which symbols that strange C++ compiler
defines, I'll insert #ifdef/#endif in my code, so that there will
be no problems in the future.
