Here's the help I received from David Miller at Washington.  It did the 
trick for me ... with a few minor changes like adding casts:

Bear in mind that I'm using Sun's SPARCcompiler C - that may cause 
your/my mileage to vary.

Many people, I should think.

This is what I did when building Pine 3.91:

SOLARIS 2.3
-----------

. Edited pine/osdep/os-sv4.h and made 3 changes (original file in .orig):

  . Set the locations of the pine global configuration files;
  . De-commented the setting of ANSI;
  . Commented the null definition of "const".
  
. Edited pine/makefile.sol and made one change (original file in .orig):   
  
  . Commented out the compiler flag setting for -g -DDEBUG.
  . De-commented the compiler flag setting for -O. 
  
. Typed "build sol" at top level. 

It all built straight away, seemingly successfully. There were a number of 
compiler warnings, some about changes of comparisons for ANSI semantics, and 
some for apparent differences of argument types to some routines. These do not 
seem to matter.
