Failed build on Solaris i86pc

Hi Everyone,

I'm working on Solaris 11.3, i86pc. I'm building pkg-config 0.29.2 from the release tarball.

Configure is failing with:

Here is config.log. I am not sure how helpful it is.

pkg-config is unique among packages. I've learned pkg-config is one of the critical packages needed to bootstrap things. In fact, the only package more critical is Wget because that downloads a package. Once I have a working pkg-config and Wget, I can install other packages like iConv and GetText.

Here are the non-trivial configure --help options. I don't see an option to control the behavior.

  --with-pc-path          default search path for .pc files
  --with-system-include-path
                          avoid -I flags from the given path
  --with-system-library-path
                          avoid -L flags from the given path
  --with-internal-glib    use internal glib
  --with-gcov             gcov test coverage [default=no]

"Control the behavior" is a little vague. I need the build to succeed at any cost. I don't care about localization at this point. I can do things the right way later, once I have a working pkg-config and wget.
