The last version of GNU grep to build successfully on that system is
2.5.4, so we may just have to consider it unsupported in current grep
releases.
Can you try a newer GCC? That may actually be fixed by newer versions
since GCC doesn't provide a stdint.h but simply tries to fix known
problems with the system's stdint.h.
On Solaris 7 SPARC (another rather old system), compilation fails like
this:
CC isdir.o
In file included from sys/stat.h:48,
isdir.c:23:
sys/stat.h:861: warning: `struct stat' declared inside parameter list
sys/stat.h:861: warning: its scope is only this definition or
declaration, which is probably not what you want.
isdir.c: In function `isdir':
isdir.c:30: storage size of `stats' isn't known
The last successful grep build on that system was 2.5.1 (November
2004), so it too may be left behind.
Here what's the GCC version? Or, can you try this patch:
diff --git a/lib/isdir.c b/lib/isdir.c
index c1430cc..0d35280 100644

+++ b/lib/isdir.c

/* If PATH is an existing directory or symbolic link to a directory,
or provide us with the output of "grep -rw struct.*stat /usr/include"?
