Summary: net-snmp does not properly read 3.2T Disks or Partions

Initial Comment:
System Information
    Sun Solaris 10 6/06 s10x_u2wos_09a X86
    ZFS Filesystem, partitioned as 3.2T /usr/fast
    Net-SNMP 5.4.1.1 (ftp://ftp.sunfreeware.com/pub/freeware/intel/10/netsnmp-5.4.1.1-sol10-
 x86-local.gz)
    Sun-supplied GCC (/usr/sfw/bin/gcc) version 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-branch+sol_rpath)

Problem
The issue arose due to the two servers having 3.2T
disks which were larger than could be addressed by net-snmp.

   Couldn't open device fast
   statvfs dev/disk: Value too large for defined data type

These messages were printed out whenever net-snmp polled the local disks for information
(usually when I would issue an snmpwalk on the server). If traps were also configured, its
possible these messages would be printed out intermittently (not requiring a walk).

Suggest Solution
So, to solve the problem, we need to instead use the 64-bit version of statvfs. To do this, we
simply call statvfs64 within disk.c instead of statvfs (as well as using the corresponding
statvfs64 data structure)
