Solaris 10 compilation fails

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Problem:

Compilation fails on Solaris 10 U7 and below.

Error:

cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.   -I/usr/local/include -xprofile=tcov -mt -g 
-errfmt=error -errwarn -errshort=tags -c -o memcached_debug-memcached.o `test 
-f 'memcached.c' || echo './'`memcached.c
cc: libxprof.so is missing from your system, consult documentation for how to 
obtain it
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `memcached_debug-memcached.o'
Current working directory /usr/distrib/memcached-1.4.5
*** Error code 1

Why it happens:

libxprof.so is not included in Solaris 10 U7 + Solaris Studio 12.2 and below. 
It can be installed only with kernel patch, which can be obtained via Oracle 
paid subscription only.

Solution:

Set "PROFILER_FLAGS" to be empty for Solaris by default, or any other 
workaround solution.

How to reproduce:

Last memcached version on Solaris 10 u6/u7:

1. tar xfv memcached-1.4.5 && cd memcache-1.4.5/
2. ./configure
3. make

Trond, can you verify and fix or close the Solaris issues?

configure checks for the "tcov" binary during configure, and tries to add 
coverage support if you've got it installed. You should add --disable-coverage 
to disable coverage support (we should probably flip the default value, but 
that should be a separate bug report)
