I just marked gcc on sunos as required and chose option 1.  It appears
that the admins have installed an older version of bzip2 on this
system, so including "blib.h" works, but it is missing some macros and
function prototypes.  Just skipping the test seems to be the best
choice.

This will be reflected in tomorrow's run.
