There seems to be a lot of issues with _XOPEN_SOURCE and Solaris, see:

From this discussion, it seems that we should strip out
_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
_XOPEN_SOURCE
_POSIX_C_SOURCE
when building Python on Solaris. In that discussion, there's a patch
to configure.in or a couple of Perl commands. It seems like this
would be a good thing to try.

I'll give that a try. Hopefully that will resolve the issue and the next release
of python will not require this.
In the even this can't be resolved, I would request that the patch causing the
problem is removed until such time as it can be fully resolved. It will probably
take me some time to test all this, as I suspect it would be wise to do a
complete rebuild, as so many things depend on python, it would be unwise to
rebuild python without rebuilding the things that depend on it.
