To clarify, the problem I reported was not that Ruby itself wouldn't
build on Solaris, it was that I couldn't build a C extension on
Solaris using Ruby 1.8.0preview2 built with --enable-shared.

I am able to build this extension using Ruby 1.6.8 both with and
without --enable-shared. I will try building it using CVS HEAD this
evening, along with Matz's suggestion of:

   LDFLAGS="-Wl,-E,-dy"

in configure.in.
