You didn't mention which OpenSolaris distribution you're using, so
it's a little difficult to be sure of the answer.  You've also asked
two completely separate questions:

1. Where's make?

The Solaris distribution includes make in /usr/ccs/bin and gmake in
/usr/sfw/bin.  I believe SchilliX ships with smake installed as make
in /usr/ccs/bin; you could also try invoking smake directly.  For
other distributions, consult your vendor.  The OpenSolaris technology
base doesn't yet include a make program, although we expect to include
both make and gmake in the future.

2. Why does my build fail with this error about ar?

This is not a gmake problem; you are missing ar, or it's not in your
PATH.  If you are using Solaris or a compatible distribution, make
sure you have the SUNWbtool package installed and add /usr/ccs/bin to
your PATH (ar is a part of the OpenSolaris technology base; if your
distribution vendor did not include it, you should complain loudly).
