This is a something left from some old days, trying to compile with
SunStudio... Yes, limits the amount of memory available to squid but at
our domain (~ 2000 users, with DNS load balancing on two squids) it's
more than enough.

We run squid on a "pre Oracle" version of Solaris... so, unpatched. And
we don't need Kerberos. I'll take a look at the contrib/solaris patch.
Can try on both this old Solaris and OpenIndiana.
