Are you shure, that you have really called "configure" with the right
parameters? I think, the needed libraries should be added by the configure-
script while writing the configuration for the compilation. You must link
against the following *additional* libraries: -lsocket -lnsl 
I used the following little script to compile powerdns on Solaris8:

export PATH=/opt/gnu-binutils/bin:/opt/gcc-3/bin:/usr/xpg4/bin:${PATH}:/opt/sfw/bin
#export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/gcc-3/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/powerdns/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_RUN_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
#export CFLAGS="-m32 -I${HOME}/boost_1_33_1 -DSOLARIS -DSOLARIS8 ${CFLAGS} -fbounds-check"
export CFLAGS="-m32 -I${HOME}/boost_1_33_1 -DSOLARIS -DSOLARIS8 ${CFLAGS}"
export CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
./configure --prefix=/opt/powerdns --sysconfdir=/etc/powerdns \
  --localstatedir=/var/run --enable-pdns_server --enable-recursor --with-pic \
  --enable-shared --with-gnu-ld --with-ld=/opt/gnu-binutils/bin/ld \
  --with-gnu-as --with-as=/opt/gnu-binutils/bin/as --with-modules="gmysql pdns pipe geo" --with-dynmodules="gmysql pdns pipe geo" \
  --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql  && gmake

You may need to change some of the pathes and you also need to delete
"-DSOLARIS8" from CFLAGS (SOLARIS8 is different for the "*context" functions,
which are used in mtasker, which is needed in the recursor).

There seems to be a problem with powerdns on SOLARIS8/Sparc, which leaads
to an bus-error fro mtime to time. I had no time yes, to search for the
reason for these bus-errors (maybe within the next few weeks). I have also
to test, if the problem comes from the gmysql-Module or from something
else (i used powerdns with gmysql-Module only, without the bind-backend).
