Yes. There are a few folks using it on Solaris I believe.

It's normally part of your gcc installation - but you might
want to find it.

	find / -name libstdc++.so.\* >/dev/null

should do the trick (though it may take a while). You'll
also want to make 
sure that the build process links P4.so using 'g++' or
'c++'  rather than 
'gcc' or 'cc'. 

If it's wrong, the right solution is to fix the
hints/solaris.pl file, the 
expedient solution is to copy and paste the command line and
run it manually. 

Let me know how you get on.

PS. I'm on vacation shortly and won't have access to my
email until Tuesday. 
Hopefully this will get you past the sticking point though.

Also, from the notes in the support call, you'll need to
use a build of the 
Perforce API that was compiled with gcc 2.x; the gcc 3.x
builds won't work in 
your environment. Try the API build at:

http://filehost.perforce.com/perforce/r0
5.2/bin.solaris26sparc/p4api.tar
