I would recommend to just document the problem and workaround in two places: 1) in the OmniOS community, 2) at https://gitlab.com/ghwiki/gnow-how/-/wikis/Platforms/Configuration for GNU people.
That seems reasonable.
It's not worth the complexity in Autoconf for a short-lived bug in a small-community system, when a workaround is so easy to put in place. References: [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_OpenSolaris_distributions [2] trends.google.com
This Google reference (which is likely based on Google Search data) is very annoying to me and it seems irrelevant. There is no need to diminish a viable free operating system.
In a similar spirit, I should point out that Illumos is doing better than CLISP according to trends.google.com since the limited popularlity is stable and not dwindling. ;-)
