It wasn't actually as bad I remembered, but I prefer to have changes that 
can be easily merged upstream.

Checks for missing functions should be used instead of #fdef SOLARIS so 
that other platforms can benefit.

My understanding is that they're still investigating making parts of 
Compiz Fusion MIT licenced like the core, so support code from GPL 
libraries should be avoided.
