I _did_ build GDAL on Solaris, although I took Solaris8 to build for
Solaris10, as I already moved to SunStudio on Solaris10 (still having
Solaris8/GCC on another machine) which got me into severe trouble.
Solaris10 has sone unusual places for the toolchain, like /usr/sfw/,
you might have to add these places during 'configure'.

My primary goal was to stuff Shapefiles anv VMap0/1 data into a PostGIS
database, so I removed some unneeded stuff like SWIG bindings:
