I believe that I remember what the issue was. It had to do with which
shell to execute the make in. In any case, as Kai Ruottu pointed out,
the answer was in the installation docs.

PS. I took a quick scan, and here it is, from the sun-solaris2 part of
the hardware specific install instructions
The Solaris 2 /bin/sh will often fail to configure libstdc++-v3,
boehm-gc or libjava. We therefore recommend using the following initial
sequence of commands
% CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/ksh
% export CONFIG_SHELL
and proceed as described in the configure instructions
<http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html>. In addition we strongly
recommend specifying an absolute path to invoke srcdir/configure.

The usual reason could be that the "Prerequisites" was not read from
the Install instructions at gcc.gnu.org... Like that using GNU make
is obligatory...
