It built without errors in Nevada b90.

SunOS 5.11 snv_90 i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris

First I installed gmp and mpfr, both 32 and 64-bit versions
(in /opt/local/lib and /opt/local/lib/64) which took a few tries.

Env:

PATH=/usr/gnu/bin:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/ccs/bin

(I put "GNU" stuff first in the PATH just in case - not sure if
it makes any difference in the build)

CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/local/include
CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib -R/opt/local/lib
LD_OPTIONS=-L/opt/local/lib -R/opt/local/lib

--enable-languages=c,c++,fortran --with-gmp=/opt/local --with-mpfr=/opt/local

gmake -j 8 && gmake install (using 8 cores, it builds in a few minutes)
