Solaris 8 and libm.so.2

Hi everyone.  I'm trying to build GHC 6.8.3 on a Solaris 8 machine.  I'd
love to upgrade Solaris to 10, which I believe would solve the problem I'm
having by making /usr/lib/libm.so.2 available, but that's not an option at
this time.
Here's the output of uname -a on the system.

SunOS bwddev1 5.8 Generic_117350-53 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-80

The GCC I'm using is gcc

Target: sparc-sun-solaris2.8
Configured with: /usr/local/src/gnu/gcc-4.0.1/configure
--with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --disable-nls
--prefix=/usr/local/gcc4
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.0.1

The GHC binary I'm bootstrapping with is 6.4.1.  It works fine for compiling
complex haskell programs and packages.

I've already worked through a couple of problems to get to where I'm at now.
 What I had to do was...

changed #define SIZET_FMT "d" to #define SIZET_FMT "d" in
includes/mkDerivedConstances.c.
change #include <stdint.h> to #include <inttypes.h> in includes/HsFFI.h
added mk/build.mk containing SRC_HC_OPTS=-opta-mcpu=v9

My latest attempt at a build involved the following, where BOS_ROOT points
at the root of my build tree, and $BOS_ROOT/gcc4 is where my gcc lives, and
$BOS_ROOT/ghc is where the ghc binary lives.  This is only the latest
attempt.  The libm.so.2 symbolic link and the LDFLAGS and LD_LIBRARY_PATH
values were added on the most recent attempt.

ln -s /usr/lib/libm.so.1 $BOS_ROOT/lib/libm.so.2
PATH=$BOS_ROOT/gcc4/bin:$BOS_ROOT/ghc/bin:$BOS_ROOT/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$BOS_ROOT/gcc4/lib:$BOS_ROOT/ghc/lib:$BOS_ROOT/lib:/usr/lib
LDFLAGS=-static -L$BOS_ROOT/lib
CFLAGS=
export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH LDFLAGS CFLAGS

fp_prog_ld_raw=/usr/ccs/bin/ld ./configure \
    --prefix=$BOS_ROOT \
    --with-ghc=$BOS_ROOT/ghc/bin/ghc \
    --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as \
    --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld \
    --with-gcc=$BOS_ROOT/gcc4/bin/gcc \
    --with-gmp-includes=$BOS_ROOT/include \
    --with-gmp-libraries=$BOS_ROOT/lib \
    --with-readline-includes=$BOS_ROOT/include \
    --with-readline-libraries=$BOS_ROOT/lib

Once I made these changes, the build goes on for a number of hours then dies
with what's listed below.  I understand that this is because the build is
looking for libm.so.2, while the lib on Solaris 8 is /usr/lib/libm.so.1.  No
matter what I do - including the kludge above attempting to create a
libm.so.2 symbolic link, I can't get rid of the errors.  Any help at all
would be very much appreciated.  Please.

Here's the error listing.
