Re: (no subject)

If I were to make a guess, I think it is a problem in the 
autoconf/configure script, in that it cannot seem to identify object 
symbols in libraries or perform the standard "linker" tests.

One thing you might try is this:

./reconfig
./configure

if you have or install automake, you can use reconfig to regenerate the 
"configure" script, and if your autoconf is more correct for Solaris, it 
may work better...
