RFR (XS) 8022093 - syntax error near "umpiconninfo_t" -- when building on Solaris 10/X86

[Ioi Lam]

I saw this on a new Solaris/x86 box that was provisioned by our internal 
IT about recently. It is in use by our team and is not part of the JPRT 
infrastructure.

So I am worried that anyone starting hotspot development on their own 
Solaris 10 box would be baffled by the same issue.

I will send the review request to hotspot-runtime-dev instead.

Thanks
