First let me say, congrats on the first 5.0 release! (even if it is 
alpha ;) I was able to take out a bunch of my patches and it seems to 
compile much cleaner in general than 4.4.9.

It looks like I'm running into some kind of internal linking issue, or 
maybe a missing header that needs to be pointed to during the 
rpmconstant portion of the build. Up until that this point it had been 
running smoothly and I thought it might actually go all the way. For 
most Sun Studio issues I usually have a work around up my sleeve, but 
this seems to be something internal since these are all defined within 
the package.

Any thoughts?
