The timegm(3) function is a non-standard extension to libc which is
available in GNU libc and on some BSDs.  Although SunOS had this
function in its libc, Solaris (unfortunately) removed it.  This patch
implements a very simple version of timegm() which is good enough for
parse-time-string.c.

One complication of this fix is that libnotmuch.a includes a call to
parse_time_string() from parse-time-vrp.o, and parse_time_string() in
libparse-time-string.a is the thing which needs to call timegm().  A
straightforward attempt to have the two static libraries reconcile their
symbols from one another fails, because the symbols come from different
.o's, and the linker only does a single pass on each ".a" looking for
dependencies.  To solve this, libparse-time-string includes "compat.h",
and pulls in .o's from the compat directory, in order to get everything
that it needs.
