[JDEV] Gabber for Solaris

[Peter Fales]

After going back and re-reading John's original mail, I saw that he
had expressed an interest in finding a solaris binary for gabber.  We
support a collection of open source packages called "World Wide Exptools"
at http://www.bell-labs.com/project/wwexptools/

I've installed our jabber binaries for solaris, irix, and linux there.
The Solaris binary is compiled on Solaris 2.5.1, but we have also used it
succesfully on Solaris 6, 7, and 8.

To download it, select "packages" and then select the "snapshot" link for 
the the gabber package.  You'll also need to install audiofile, db, 
imagelibs, gtk+, and (optionally - see the toolnew files) openssh.  These 
snapshots are all tarballs intended to be unpacked under /opt/exp, so they
should not interfere with anything else on your system.
