Apparently port.h is trying to declare unsetenv although the system
headers already do.  If you look in port.h you should see something
like this:

#ifndef HAVE_UNSETENV
extern void unsetenv(const char *name);
#endif

What's the output of the following command?

grep HAVE_UNSETENV /opt/csw/postgresql/include/pg_config.h \
                   /opt/csw/postgresql/include/server/pg_config.h

I'm wondering if your PostgreSQL headers don't properly recognize
that your standard library has unsetenv().  Solaris 9 doesn't have
that function -- is there any chance you installed a Solaris 9
PostgreSQL package instead of one built for Solaris 10?
