The solaris case implementation of the ipv6 check assumes /usr/xpg4/bin/grep is available. This gives error messages on e.g. IRIX where /etc/netconfig is available, but no /usr/xpg4/bin/grep. This is simply fixed by using $GREP which is set by configure, and will be set to /usr/xpkg4/bin/grep if no suitable grep was found in the path. Attached patch incorporates this change.

This is a miniscule patch to configure.in could someone please run with this.

Hi, I think the best way to test this patch is to apply the fix and then compile python on a Solaris system (which I don't have): is someone owning a Solaris would run this test?
