Good experimentation. I think we're on the right track but pointing at the 
wrong program. You're probably still getting hit by GNU binutils, but not 
ld -- it's strip. (Which also, in some iterations, has been hopelessly 
flawed for Solaris.) Two good experiments (let gmake = GNU make):

gmake install STRIP=''

and

gmake install STRIP='/usr/ccs/bin/strip'

I personally recommend not stripping binaries unless you are in a severely 
space limited environment. Given modern storage sizes, "severely space 
limited" is becoming extremely specialized.


As an aside, autoconf itself can't (couldn't? I don't retest this at each 
release) handle an empty setting there, so for that phase I use

STRIP='/bin/true' [...] ./configure [...]
