It seems that the dependencies (for C files) are built with
     @$(SHELL) -ec '$(GEN_DEPS.c) $<
with GEN_DEPS.c defined in config/mh-solaris-gcc (and most other fragments) as
     $(CC) -E -MM $(DEFS) $(CPPFLAGS)
i.e., without using $(CFLAGS).

Thus this step fails and probably creates empty or no dependency files.  The
error messages are a pain, but otherwise everything should be OK.

If you wish you could try to add $(CFLAGS) or -std=c99 to the definition of GEN_DEPS.c
in config/mh-solaris-gcc and see if that helps.
