Looks like Solaris has broken 'struct option' definition, particularly
'char *name' without 'const'.

FWIW, from PostgreSQL's configure:
# Similarly, use system's getopt_long() only if system provides struct option.
# Solaris' getopt() doesn't do what we want for long options, so always use
# our versions on that platform.
if test "$PORTNAME" = "solaris"; then
  AC_LIBOBJ(getopt)
  AC_LIBOBJ(getopt_long)
elif test x"$ac_cv_type_struct_option" = xyes ; then
  AC_REPLACE_FUNCS([getopt_long])
else
  AC_LIBOBJ(getopt_long)
fi

Looks like other similar bugs you filed are actually duplicates of this
one.

If it's the same root cause, then I suppose so...

Is this still an issue? IMHO it should be fixed, but I can't really test...

I don't have a solaris machine available at the moment (and lack disk space on
my laptop to set one up).

IIRC Francois may have one, perhaps he can test.
