[Xymon] Installing 4.3.12 Solaris make install error

[Vernon Everett]

Thanks. Got it eventually.
Also just moved to 4.3.12
Was a little more complicated for me, because we were on 4.2.3.
4.2.3 was a tricksy version. It was a Xymon/Hobbit chimera, with some
things moved to Xymon naming, and other stuff still on Hobbit.
But I got there in the end, and the downtime was minimal.

Now I think it's time to upgrade the clients.
We are still using 4.2.0 clients. :-)

Cheers
Vernon
