Rich,

I'm pretty certain that I've read in php.net in the
manual or perhaps in the source README that you need
to be using all gnu tools to successfully compile.

I usually grab them as binaries from sunfreeware.com. 
(also check your solaris install cd's, i believe the
software companion has binutils) So if you go to
www.sunfreeware.com and click on the link on the left
"Ftp/Mirrors", you will get a list of ftp/http
mirrors, and then you will want to click thru for
solaris 5.7, sparc, and then look for the binutils
package (which has the linker, as, etc).

the site has some good hints and instructions on
installing solaris packages, but in breif you will
have to unzip the package (using gzip, 'gunzip
binutils.xxx.gz'), and then install the package by
typing
'pkgadd -d unzipped_directory_name'

note that you might already have it installed, and you
can check (sorry if you know all this) by typing
'pkginfo | grep SMCbinutils'

If you wish to compile the gnu binutils from source,
you can grab the source from ftp://ftp.gnu.org.
