I built a Solaris version with gcc and gnu make.  I then
spent an entire 5 minutes or so trying it with the Solaris
make and the Solaris compiler.  Solaris make barfed a lot...

Rumor has it that the Sun compile generates noticeably
better code than gcc.  There is at least one other person
(SMA) that was interested.
