I compiled gimp 1.1.25 under Solaris 2.6 on a Ultra1 without any
problems (except for the Perl Makefile, but you solved that already).
It works fine for me, and I get no crashes or errors on startup.
Note that I downloaded and compiled glib-1.2.8 and gtk-1.2.8 from the
sources. I have never used the pre-compiled versions from the
Sunfreeware site, so maybe you should consider compiling them yourself
and see if it makes a difference.
If you are interested, here are my installation instructions for
Solaris 2.6. I install everything under /Local. Feel free to choose
another prefix that suits your environment. Also, the "make dvi"
steps are optional and require that you have teTeX or another TeX
package. The lines that start with [su] mean that you should execute
these commands as root or as the user that owns the installation
directories (important if you are doing that over NFS).
* glib-1.2.8
(sources: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/)
./configure --prefix=/Local --with-threads=solaris
make
make check
[su] make install
make dvi
[su] cp docs/*.dvi /Local/doc-dvi/
* gtk+-1.2.8
(sources: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/)
./configure --prefix=/Local
make
[su] make install
make dvi
[su] cp docs/*.dvi /Local/doc-dvi/
* PDL-2.003
(sources: http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/KGB/)
perl Makefile.PL
make test
[su] make install
(note: many of the tests failed under Solaris, but it seems to work anyway)
* Parse-RecDescent-1.70
(sources: http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/DCONWAY/)
perl Makefile.PL
make test
[su] make install
* Gtk-Perl-0.6123
(sources: http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/KJALB/)
perl Makefile.PL
make test
[su] make install
* gimp-1.1.25
(sources: ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/)
./configure --prefix=/Local
make
make
[su] make install
cd docs
make dvi
[su] cp *.dvi /Local/doc-dvi/
cd ..
(note: it is necessary to type "make" twice before "make install" because
libgimpi.a is only built correctly on the second pass - see bug #24077)
Hope this helps...
