Local fix

Problem summary

• Spectrum Scale ships several ilm samples. One
  of them is a mmfind tool and to use the tool,
  findUtil_processOutputFile.c
  needs to be compiled. But the compilation of
  findUtil_processOutputFile.c fails on some Linux distros.
  

Problem conclusion

• This problem is fixed in 5.1.2  PTF 1

  Benefits of the solution:
  mmfind can be run on all Linux distros without
  modifying findUtil_processOutputFile.c.
  
  Work around:
  Modify mmfindUtil_processOutputFile.c
  before compiling it.
  
  Problem trigger:
  Compiling mmfindUtil_processOutputFile.c
