The repository version should build with Studio12u3 on Solaris 10u6, or 
Solaris 10u10. However if you want to build on Solaris 11.x then you 
need to use a "devkit" (as Erik mentioned) that uses the S10u6 or S10u10 
system headers. Otherwise you will need to pass 
--disable-warnings-as-errors to configure (but even that might not be 
enough).
