Qpopper 4.0.16 Upgrade on a Solaris 5.7 System

For anyone who might be encountering problems building Qpopper or other software on a Solaris system and seeing a checking size of unsigned long int... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (unsigned long int), 77 error message at the configure stage or seeing ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors at the make stage, try running configure with CFLAGS=-gstabs+, i.e. try ./configure CFLAGS=-gstabs+. Since Solaris uses shadow passwords, you should also use the --enable-specialauth option as well, i.e. use the following configure command:

./configure --enable-specialauth CFLAGS=-gstabs+

Otherwise, Qpopper won't likely accept an account's password when you try to download email. Using those options at the configure step allowed me to resolve issues I was having installing Qpopper 4.0.16 on a Solaris 5.7 system.
