According to the top level README.txt

----------------------------------------------
NOT OFFICIALLY SUPPORTED, BUT NEARLY WORKS:
        PROCESSOR       OPERATING SYSTEM
        sparc           Solaris 10 -- works fine (needs custom built gcc 
toolchain)
        x86_64          Solaris 10 -- must use clisp instead of ecl
----------------------------------------------

I think that Solaris statement is a bit optimistic!

* Sage does not build on 't2'
* It's never passed all doctests
* I've built it on my home machine, but the GUI did not work.

I suggest changing that README.txt to having a 'README-Solaris.txt'.

Some time ago I opened a trac ticket

http://sagetrac.org/sage_trac/ticket/6057

to request a readme specifically for Solaris, as I felt more information 
was needed about exactly what the status was. But that trac ticket was 
closed with '(closed defect: wontfix)'
