[MLton] building mlton on Solaris 10

I had to make

cp ./basis-library/libs/basis-1997/arrays-and-vectors/mono-vector-array-array2-convert.fu
./basis-library/libs/basis-1997/arrays-and-vectors/mono-vector-array-array2-convert.fun

Probably the use of Solaris tar caused this truncation, I don't know.

At last I've built successfully mlton:

-bash-3.00$ mlton
MLton 20051202 (built Fri Nov 03 14:57:10 2006 on ssrv25sd)

But the regression fails at mlton.share as it failed with the
distributed Solaris 8 mlton:

difference with -type-check true

-bash-3.00$ bin/platform
HOST_OS=solaris HOST_ARCH=sparc

-bash-3.00$ ls mlton.shar*
mlton.share.ok    mlton.share.sml

There's no special version for solaris!

I've downloaded one from subversion, now I'm running the regression test.
