 You are true :) Solaris and gcc specific.
 The patch may be :
 
 +.if ${OPSYS} == "SunOS" && ${CC} == "gcc" 
 +#workaround for bug with Solaris/gcc : __builtin_huge_val is a func. in that 
 case, but  not declare as in Solaris header.
 +CONFIGURE_ARGS+=       OPT="${CFLAGS} -D\"Py_HUGE_VAL=__builtin_huge_val()\""
 +.else
  CONFIGURE_ARGS+=       OPT="${CFLAGS}"
 +.endif
 
 
 Is my fix valid ?
 
 Gilles
