According to http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/FAQ.html#s-1.1:
The systems glibc is known to work on as of this release, and most
probably in the future, are:
*-*-gnu GNU Hurd
i[3456]86-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.x on Intel
m68k-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.x on Motorola 680x0
alpha*-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.x on DEC Alpha
powerpc-*-linux-gnu Linux and MkLinux on PowerPC systems
powerpc64-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.4+ on 64-bit PowerPC systems
sparc-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.x on SPARC
sparc64-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.x on UltraSPARC
arm-*-none ARM standalone systems
arm-*-linux Linux-2.x on ARM
arm-*-linuxaout Linux-2.x on ARM using a.out binaries
mips*-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.x on MIPS
ia64-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.x on ia64
s390-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.x on IBM S/390
s390x-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.x on IBM S/390 64-bit
cris-*-linux-gnu Linux-2.4+ on CRIS
I think glibc is very Linux specific, sometimes even down to the kernel
version and porting to Solaris would be a very non-trivial task, it's
probably better to tweak (correct) your source to run with Sun's libc
and send the patch upstream if possible.
