So long as there is only C code (no C++) I have had no real problems
mixing various GCCs and/or Sun compilers. But that is good advice.

Cannot see anything obviously wrong. 
That is a squeaky clean new GCC though I have the impression that 
it has not been shaken down on "Solaris7" yet.

Can you run 
gcc -v
to see how GCC is built?
It is _possible_ that the compiler is at fault.
But it looks more like a library/include file mis-match 
problem.

>bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/openwin/demo

If you have the SunPro compiler you could try building with 
that.
