The Parrot code itself can be C89 compliant, such that Parrot contains no
issues that prevent it from being complied with a seriously fastidious
compiler on a platform where the system headers are also suitably compliant.

Surprisingly Solaris is not such a platform. [Solaris is very carefully
engineered in so many other ways, that I had expected that it would be]
