Install libffi and libtool with:
pkg install libffi libtool
Then run configure with this command: ./configure --enable-libffi
--enable-lt="$(whereis libtool)"

Also, you may want '--disable-libffi'

I'm not sure, but it's possible that a newer version of libtool is
needed.
Meanwhile, does dropping the `--enable-shared` flag help? (I recommend
that in any case, unless you specifically need a libracket shared
library.)

I replaced ‘-KPIC’ with ‘-fPIC’ in all instances in the files that you

Then after the above failure, I noticed:
libtool —config | grep pic_flag
pic_flag= “ -KPIC -DPIC”
libtool —config | grep CC
CC=“cc”
So, something is not right with these configuration variables.
I am not familiar with libtool.
And I tried to set
export CC=gcc
export pic_flag=“ -fPIC -DPIC”
These did not help.
Any suggestions ?

I downloaded racket 6.5 sources

Any idea what happened and how I can proceed ?

Back in the 90's I worked with SunOS5/Solaris, but this is a new one
for
me. :-)
A little searching turned up that -KPIC / -Kpic tells the Sun C
compiler to
produce position independent code - the case of the flag determines the
maximum size of the global offset table. The equivalent GCC flags are
-fPIC
/ -fpic ... you *might* be able to get away with fixing up the
makefile(s), if
there are no other CC specific options. Otherwise, you can try
changing the
configuration files [below] in the sections pertaining to Solaris and/or
SunOS, and then run configure again to start over.
A grep of the [full] 6.5 release sources found the -KPIC option
referenced
in the following files:
racket-6.5\src\foreign\libffi\configure
racket-6.5\src\foreign\libffi\m4\libtool.m4
racket-6.5\src\lt\aclocal.m4
racket-6.5\src\lt\configure
racket-6.5\src\racket\gc\configure
racket-6.5\src\racket\gc\doc\README.DGUX386
racket-6.5\src\racket\gc\libtool.m4
Obviously the Racket build maintainers will have to fix this at the
configuration level.
Hope this helps,
George
