It's generated automatically by configure - you can change it with the
--with-protocol-dir option.  I'm surprised it doesn't work on solaris
though... autoconf is pretty standard and it's not really doing anything
out of the ordinary to generate the path..  There's a new version of
AC_DEFINE_DIR out so I'll stick that in and see if it makes a difference.
