Sorry, but we need it on Solaris at least, since the dix/Xserver-dtrace.h
generated by the dtrace command during the build refers to the string type.

We could wrap it in #ifdef __sun I guess, if that helps.  (Apple seems to
already have #define for it in dix/Xserver.d, not sure if BSD needs it or
not.)
