Shot in the dark.  Most gcc installs on Solaris also require
running a "fix the system headers to work with gcc" program.
I think it is typically called "fixinclude" or something
similar.  Was this in the gcc distribution and was it run?

Two other notes, blastwave has more recent gcc versions
and Sun now makes their compilers and IDE available for
free for Sol10 users.  "I think" it is called Studio 11.
It is more likely to be optimized for AMD64 as that is
the processor in many of Sun's new x86 boxes.
