Expand the blob on Solaris to mention passing '-Xc' to compile Python
correctly. Note that 'faulty' should actually be spelled 'fawlty', but I
don't want those bugreports assigned to me ;)

! Solaris: When using Sun's C compiler with threads, at least on Solaris
! 	2.5.1, you need to add the "-mt" compiler option (the simplest
! 	way is probably to specify the compiler with this option as

! Solaris: When using Sun's C compiler, it's necessary to compile in
!         strict ANSI mode with multithreading enabled. This can be done
!         by setting the 'CC' environment variable to 'cc -Xc -mt'
!         before running the configure script. ANSI-compatibility mode
!         ('-Xa') has been seen to compile the code without problems,
!         but generate faulty code.
