The comment in configure.in says

Perhaps Sun need to pick up some X11 headers that antedate 1988 or so?
The ones I've seen on other UNIXes don't seem to lack prototype
information. (I forget whether the Solaris ones I saw lacked them or
needed some special #define to be turned on to get them. In either
case, it's 2003, and it's time for Sun to stop worrying about C
compilers that can't handle function prototypes, if they haven't already
done so.)
If they've done so in Solaris 8 or 9, we might want to see if we can add
that flag only in older versions.
