Comment(by drkirkby):

 I've set the default compiler to be gcc 4.2.4, as that is the latest which
 will build MPFR with no test failures. So to test

 1) Log onto t2, where the default compiler will be fine.
 2) gcc -v should include in the output:
 {{{
 --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --without-gnu-ld
 }}}
 which indicates gcc is configured to gnu linker.

 3) Install the patch for NTL, which changes an option on 'cp', which has
 already received positive review (6380), IF it is not incorporated
 already. It is not in 4.1, but might be in a later release.

 fixes/ntl-5.4.2.p9/ntl-5.4.2.p9.spkg

 This is needed, as ntl is built in Sage before znpoly.

 5) Depending on what version of Sage you build it with, and so the exact
 order znpoly gets built, it may be necessary to apply one of the other
 Solaris patches as well.

 Check here for a patch.
