[Xymon] file monitoring

Before chasing that around too much, can you just build one client from scratch to see how it goes?  Client does not require much, pcre and some other standard stuff.  I use gmake from /usr/sfw/bin/gmake on our x86 Solaris boxes, if that helps.

The build will be just to (quickly?) eliminate or nominate large file support as the culprit.
