I don't think the manual page at http://www.mysql.com/doc/S/o/Solaris.html is much help here. It mentions setting
ac_cv_sys_restartable_syscalls=${ac_cv_sys_restartable_syscalls='no'} in your config.cache in case of a particular error, not the one reported here. I think I remember reading somewhere that configure was updated at some point to take care of this, but I couldn't find it mentioned in the Change Log, so maybe that's just my imagination. In any case, configure took care of this for me in 3.23.44. There is also a comment at the bottom of the page which says "Solaris 8 doesn't seem to have an automatic LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable defined..." This could also be said of Solaris 2.6 and 7, and seems unlikely to be relevant, since the problem only occurs on 8. LD_LIBRARY_PATH isn't the Solaris way of doing things.
