It's a Solaris thing. I encounter the same problem on Solaris 10/SPARC.
Apparently, the flag "t" (thread) is invalid on Solaris version of gcc. If you go do a google search, you will find this is a common problem that is not gaim-specific.
I don't know where is this flag "t" is generated from. The best thing to do is find out where that flag is being configured and modify it. Let me know if you hit any luck.

It appears something in the configure process sets a '-mt' option in the Makefile for the variable GLIB_CFLAGS:
GLIB_CFLAGS = -mt -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include
Anyone know where this is coming from and how I can mask it out (outside of editing all the Makefiles)?

Edit: /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gthread-2.0.pc
and remove "-mt" from the Cflags: row.
BTW - I had to specify "--disable-perl" and "--disable-consoleui" for it to build. I would love the console GUI at some point.
