I'm happy to say that this patch makes qemu compile and work on
Solaris quite nicely for me. I did have to invoke configure with
"--extra-ldflags=-lsocket" (and fix configure to put $LDFLAGS in
the libSDL probing commands). I also had to override the
configure script's desire to use /usr/ucb/install instead of GNU
install. The former won't let me install without being root,
because it wants to install everything as a "staff" account; the
latter will.
Thanks for making this work!

Odd. It may have something to do with your localized copy of libSDL.
The one from blastwave doesn't require -lsocket. I've been using
a version of these patches for a year, and never ran into that problem.

The configure script wants to use ginstall, assuming you've got it in your
path. I did not use "install" because there are several variations of install
on Solaris, and configure is coded to make sure you don't use them.
It recommends /usr/ucb/install if you don't have GNU install (or it can't find
it because it's looking for ginstall). I'll have to check the logic to make sure

That's a localized configuration requirement you have, and that configure should
probably not try to take into account.

You're welcome.

For what it's worth, I installed libSDL 1.2.9 from the upstream
.tar.gz without any special configuration options.

Ah, I see. I thought that it was complaining that the default
"install" was not the UCB install. In the future I'll know to
just give it the GNU version up front.

I'm not sure that installing as non-root is all that localized a
requirement, but I'm easily able to work around it so it doesn't
bother me that much.
