No, it's not. Checked include/config.h and also ran configure:

checking whether getpass should be replaced... no

Solaris 8, Sun Workshop 6, update 1. My "configuration":

env CC=cc \
    CPPFLAGS="-DHACK" \
    CFLAGS="-xO3" \
../configure \
--prefix=/opt/Samba \
--sysconfdir=/var/conf/Samba \
--localstatedir=/var/conf/Samba \
--with-privatedir=/var/conf/Samba/private \
--with-lockdir=/var/conf/Samba/locks \
--with-configdir=/var/conf/Samba \
--with-logfilebase=/var/log \
--with-ldapsam \
--with-quotas \
--without-winbind

The -DHACK thing is some LDAP modifications primarily to be able to use
Solaris LDAP libraries.
