IIUC the OP is trying to build a linux-to-cygwin cross-compiler. It
sounds like you're trying to build a cygwin-to-solaris cross-compiler,
and there is such a toolchain available in Ports:
http://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=cygwin-ports/solaris10-sparc-binutils
http://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=cygwin-ports/solaris10-sparc-gcc
http://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=cygwin-ports/solaris10-x86-binutils
http://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=cygwin-ports/solaris10-x86-gcc
The GCC .cygport files explain how to get the necessary libc/libm
headers and libraries off of a Solaris system and where to place them on
the Cygwin system.
