Summary:                    archive_endian.h needs "inline" fix for Sun WorkShop
(SunPro) compiler
Description: 
Building CMake's git nightly on a Solaris 8 system with the SunPro compiler
yields

[ 38%] Building C object
Utilities/cmlibarchive/libarchive/CMakeFiles/cmlibarchive.dir/archive_read_support_filter_rpm.c.o
".../CMake/Utilities/cmlibarchive/libarchive/archive_endian.h.", line 59:

(See http://open.cdash.org/viewBuildError.php?buildid=2340544 for more)

This compiler doesn't grok "inline"---at least not version 5.1.

A proposed patch (against git nightly) that addresses this is attached. The
macro magic is gleaned from
http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2009-April/000580.html .
