We regularly use the COMPARE_BUILD framework to test build 
reproducability, by comparing two builds made directly after one 
another. This test currently fails on solaris, since the compilation of 
libfontmanager and libsaproc is not stable (and thus can produce 
different disassembly each build).

This patch adds an exception for these libraries. (Note that one of them 
was already on the exception list, but only on slowdebug builds).

Ideally, we'd rather hunt down the problems with reproducability, but 
that's a loooong term project.
