I could be wrong, but I don't think drm has solaris support. Just
linux and the bsds. I could be wrong, and hopefully Alan Coopersmith
will jump in to clarify that.

That's just regular automake rules, which are pretty widely tested. It
could be a GNU make issue, but I doubt it. Maybe if you could should
the whole log from make it could help.
