Wow .. things just got a LOT worse here.  After nearly 7 hours :

This is just, staggering. 

I am really trying to figure out what could be in the environment that 
is the cause of these multitude of failures. 

My env vars looks like : 

 $ env | sort

Note that CFLAGS are setup for a 64-bit build ( same as usual ) and with no optimization at all. In fact with -g we have debug builds and -xs tells us 
we even get this ( from the C Users Guide for Sun Studio 12 ) : 

B.2.137 -xs

        Allows debugging by dbx without object files.
        This option causes all the debug information to be copied into the
        executable. This has little impact on dbx performance or the 
        run-time performance of the program, but it does take more
        disk space.

great .. harmless. 

In fact there really isn't anything there that would be harmful. 

I have a lot of processor cores here ( 128 of them ) and if I can run 
gmake -j 8 check to speed things up I can get results in an hour. 

Any suggestions at all ?
