Summary:  use of -lsun in LIBS generates warnings on UNICOS 9.0

Original Submission:  It seems that the generated Makefile under UNICOS 9.0 on 
a cray
y-mp el is producing LIBS=-lsun -lsun and there is no libsun.a on
the machine. This is likely some kind of autoconf bug in the
way that 'AC_CHECK_LIB(sun, getpwnam)' works on UNICOS.

I will be attaching a .tar.gz file with the output of
./configure > mdb.config.log 2>&1
make > mdb.make.log 2>&1

Included in the attachment:
  config.h
  config.log
  configure
  Makefile
  mdb.config.log
  mdb.make.log

You can download a release of findutils in which this problem is
fixed from ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/findutils.

The releases on alpha.gnu.org are for testing purposes, so please
take the time to download the release and verify that your
problem has been solved.  Once the release has been sufficiently
tested, it can be uploaded to ftp.gnu.org for everybody to use it.

I believe that this problem is fully fixed in release 4.2.7, could you check 
please?

I'm removing the dependency of bug #1100 on this bug, because although this is 
a defect, it doesn't prevent a build, I think.
