I haven't built on Solaris using gcc in a while but it does work. Some 
things, especially the things from mozilla.org, need to be told to use gcc.

Generally what I did is:

export CC=gcc
export CXX=g++

This will force the right compiler for sasl, db4, etc.

For NSS/NSPR/LDAPSDK/SVRCORE pass in the flag NS_USE_GCC=1 on the gmake 
command-line. You'll also need this when building the FDS code, 
something like:

% gmake USE_PERL_FROM_PATH=1 NS_USE_GCC=1 BUILD_DEBUG=optimize
