Just for fun I grabbed the latest snapshot and tried to compile it on my Solaris10 server at home. I ran into a couple of problems which I was able to fix. Long gory details below, quick summary at the bottom.
I configured with all default options, except no to LDAP. Here's the results:

These errors are typical of missing networking libraries (resolv,socket,nsl), so I checked the Makefile and added $(NETLIBS) to snapshot/common/Makefile
bbhostgrep: $(HOSTGREPOBJS) ../lib/libbbgen.a $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $@ $(HOSTGREPOBJS) ../lib/libbbgen.a *$(NETLIBS)*
I then did a "make clean" and ran make again. This time I get this error:
make[1]: Leaving directory /home/hobbit/snapshot/common' CC="gcc" CFLAGS="-g -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused -D_REENTRANT -DSunOS -I. -Ipwd/include -I/usr/local/include" BBHOME="/home/hobbit/client" BBHOSTIP="192.168.0.103" LOCALCLIENT="" make -C client all make[1]: Entering directory /home/hobbit/snapshot/client'
cat hobbitclient.cfg.DIST | sed -e's!@BBHOSTIP@!192.168.0.103!g'
hobbitclient.cfg make[1]: *** [hobbitclient.cfg] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/hobbit/snapshot/client' make: *** [client] Error 2
I checked to see if /home/hobbit/snapshot/client/hobbitclient.cfg was created, and it was, but zero bytes. So, I checked the hobbitclient.cfg.DIST to make sure it had data in it and it did, I then I decided to check the sed command being used: "sed -e's!@BBHOSTIP@!192.168.0.103!g'".
The syntax of that looks correct but when I tried it on the command line, it didn't work! So then I grepped for sed in all of the Makefiles, and found many usages of sed, but all the others had one difference, *a space after the -e option*. I changed the sed commands in snapshot/client/Makefile to have a space after the "-e" option, did a make clean; make; and now it compiled smoothly.
--- Summary --- So, to summarize, for Solaris compatibility in the latest snapshot, please add the netlibs to the snapshot/common/Makefile, and correct the spacing of the sed command options in snapshot/client/Makefile.
