Summary: Bad handling of 64bit int on Solaris

Initial Comment:
If kstat returns a int64_t or uint64_t value it is
incorrectly cast to a uint32 via the Counter data type
in getKstat() on solaris 2.6 and above using 4.2.3. 

This specifically effects SysKonnect skge cards on
Solaris as the skge module returns all ifEntries as
uint64 except for the following:
ipackets 
opackets
ierrors
oerrors
collisions

The casting that was done previously would set each
value to '0' for passing back to interfaces.c

The fix is the following on kernel_sunos5.c

324c324
<       *(int64_t *)v = d->value.i64;
---
>       *(Counter *)v = d->value.i64;
328c328
<       *(uint64_t *)v = d->value.ui64;
---
>       *(Counter *)v = d->value.ui64;


There is probably a cleaner way to do this, but this
worked quick and dirty, and I can actually do my
monitoring now.
