[parted-devel] parted portability: configure rejects solaris

I tried to build parted on Solaris 10 and got this:

    configure: error: Unknown or unsupported OS "solaris2.10". \
      Only "linux", "gnu" and "beos" are supported in this version of GNU Parted.

That's been there for years.
It's currently required due to the arch-specific files in
libparted/arch/*.c.

So we're off the hook for portability.
