As you supposed, no.  Just about the only thing that Solaris does in
the termios.h file is to include sys/termios.h, so this this seems to
be very unlike the __sco solution.

I see the definition in system.h, but where does it get used?  I
grepped every file in every dir of the CVS checkout, and no other file
contains those characters.  I just removed the definition, and nothing
in the build failed.

This appears to work fine on both my Solaris 2.6 (x86) and Linux
Mandrake 7.2 (x86) systems.  You might want to just remove all mention
of "offsetof", however (if we  remove it from the system.h file).
