sendfile on Solaris 8

Hello list,

I have the following problem: I want to compile apr without sendfile on
a Solaris 8 box, where sendfilev exists in libsendfile. 

Even if I pass --without-sendfile to configure, the resulting libraries
are linked with libsendfile.so

The reason is the line 

	AC_CHECK_LIB(sendfile, sendfilev)

in configure.in . There -lsendfile is added to LIBS unconditionally und
it is not removed when --without-sendfile is passed.

Regards
Uwe

Hiya - choices are...

1) build on an unpatched Solaris 8 box
2) build using "env ac_cv_lib_sendfile=no ./configure --etc --etc"
3) fix --without-sendfile to DTRT, send patches

(2) is probably easiest ;)
