Comment:

 Thanks for the recipe pointer - I'll give it a try when it's less late at
 night.

 The 0003 patch is probably better done by adding {{{solaris*}}} to the
 case statement in configure where it checks if it's OK to force
 {{{link_all_deplibs_CXX=no}}}:

 {{{
 #!sh
 # Checked: freebsd8.0 openbsd4.6
 case $host_os in
   linux* | k*bsd*-gnu | freebsd* | openbsd*)
     dnl Vanilla libtool sets this to "unknown" which it then handles as
 "yes".
     link_all_deplibs_CXX=no
     ;;
 esac
 }}}

 If just patching out xapian-config as in 0003 works, then Solaris
 presumably must load the dependencies of a library automatically, so the
 configure change should work, and that will make xapian-config avoid
 trying to use the .la file there.  If you get a chance to try that and it
 works, let me know and I'll fix it in the next release.
