Sorry for this last minute intervention, but I was on vacation last week.
First, good news, guile-1.4pre3 works fine on Solaris:
$ cc -V
cc: WorkShop Compilers 4.2 30 Oct 1996 C 4.2
$ uname -a
SunOS goudurix 5.6 Generic_105181-07 sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-20
But there are several problems on HP-PA:
$uname -a
HP-UX adagio B.10.20 A 9000/899 614401342 two-user license
using the HP C compiler.
1) When compiling ltdl.c, the compiler has not options
-Aa -D_HPUX_SOURCE
2) The following #ifdef must be added, as by default the HP C compiler
does not recognize long long (for this, you must use -Ae instead of -Aa).

3) guile-doc-snarf produces this: (file alist.x)
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_acons, 3, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_acons);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_sloppy_assq, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_sloppy_assq);

scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assq, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assq);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assv, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assv);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assoc, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assoc);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assq_ref, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assq_ref);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assv_ref, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assv_ref);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assoc_ref, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assoc_ref);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assq_set_x, 3, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assq_set_x);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assv_set_x, 3, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assv_set_x);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assoc_set_x, 3, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assoc_set_x);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assq_remove_x, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assq_remove_x);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assv_remove_x, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assv_remove_x);
scm_make_gsubr (s_ ## scm_assoc_remove_x, 2, 0, 0, (SCM (*)()) scm_assoc_remove_x);
4) In file ice-9/boot-9.scm, the definition
(define (try-using-sharlib-name libdir libname)
(in-vicinity libdir (string-append libname ".so")))
requires that shared objects end with .so, but the dynamic linker of
HP-PA needs .sl. Actually I have an equivalent dynamic linking method
in hobbit, which picks up the correct suffix from the .la files.
(See definition of path-from in hobbit4d/link.scm)
But this point 4) does not crash the installation.
Regards.
