On AIX 5.3, I do get compile errors for all-settings.c[1]. libdovecot.so 
looks great[2]!

[1] "all-settings.c", line 492.31: 1506-196 (W) Initialization between 
types "struct dynamic_settings_parser*" and "unsigned long" is not 
allowed.
"all-settings.c", line 517.31: 1506-196 (W) Initialization between types 
"struct dynamic_settings_parser*" and "unsigned long" is not allowed.
"all-settings.c", line 598.28: 1506-196 (W) Initialization between types 
"unsigned int" and "char*" is not allowed.
"all-settings.c", line 598.28: 1506-1106 (S) Initializer does not evaluate 
to a constant that fits in the target type.
"all-settings.c", line 1355.31: 1506-196 (W) Initialization between types 
"struct dynamic_settings_parser*" and "unsigned long" is not allowed.

./src/lib-dovecot/.libs/libdovecot.so.0

I don't have a Solaris 10 box. I found this link:
