[vtkusers] Make Error on Solaris Unix system

Replacing vtkBMPReader.cxx with a newer version stopped my initial
error. However he compiler then threw a very similar error for
vtkImageReader.cxx. I replaced that with a more recent version but the
problem didn't solve itself. I have now downloaded the complete source
code for version 4.4 (I was compiling from the 4.2 code). Now I'm
getting the error message shown below for vtkPLYReader.cxx. I've also
started getting an error log again complaining that sys/prctl.h does not
exist (as before which I thought I'd fixed). I'm starting to think the
problem must be in my system, but being relatively new to Solaris I
don't really know where to start looking for the problem. Can anyone
help me with this?
Thanks
John
