Solaris Build Revisited

Hi again,
After studying autoconf, automake, libtool & m4, I can now build log4cxx on 
Solaris properly
and with the latest versions.

Basically, anyone building log4cxx on Solaris should be aware of the following 
two issues:

1. Sometimes the file libtool.m4 is not installed into the location where 
aclocal expects all the macro files to be.
    Invoking "aclocal --print-ac-dir" shows where it should be, and copying it 
manually there should solve this problem.

 2. m4 1.4.1 has a bug manifesting on Solaris, which causes it to stop on 
processing AC_PROG_LIBTOOL. The only solution is to upgrade to version 1.4.2
    (ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.2.tar.gz)

Hope this helps,
Barak
