Do the regression tests pass?

The eventual patch will be a change/addition in src/Makefile.shlib,
in the section for your platform (solaris_sparc).  I am guessing that
we might need to add a line like
  SHLIB_LINK		+= -lc
but at this stage that's no more than a guess.  If that doesn't help,
you could look at the sections for the other platforms and see if you
see any switches that are mentioned in your system's documentation about
shared libs (try "man ld" if you have no other idea where to find it).

After editing Makefile.shlib, you can just go into src/interfaces/odbc
and do "make clean", "make", "make install" --- it shouldn't be
necessary to rebuild all of Postgres.
