[Samba] Cannot compile 3.0.x on Solaris 9

Dear list,

is there anyone who successfully compiled a Samba 3.0.X on a Solaris 9 box?

I tried severl versions of Samba 3.0.* on five rather differently
configured Solaris 9 boxes (Sparc) and ALWAYS get a build error
on dynconfig.c

Sometimes it seems to be a missing ldap-preprocessor define (which is
protested by the compiler although I configured --with-ldap=NO),
sometimes it is a header file missing alltogether, such as

Compiling dynconfig.c
In file included from include/smb.h:1718,
                 from include/includes.h:877,
                 from dynconfig.c:21:
include/popt_common.h:24:18: popt.h: No such file or directory
make: *** [dynconfig.o] Error 1

but compilation never goes beyond dynconfig.c

Having spent three days on fixing this problem I am increasingly
convinced that the build process for Solaris 9 has a major problem.

I would be happy for a pointer to a binary distribution as well.

Best regards,
Clemens Cap.
