        My mistake here. apparently one of my other admins upgraded the box. 
We're on Solaris 2.9 now. Here's what I get from fpversion(1):

pioneer% fpversion
 A SPARC-based CPU is available.
 Kernel says CPU's clock rate is 500.0 MHz.
 Kernel says main memory's clock rate is 100.0 MHz.

 Sun-4 floating-point controller version 0 found.
 An UltraSPARC chip is available.

 Use "-xtarget=ultra2e -xcache=16/32/1:256/64/1" code-generation option.

 Hostid = 0x830BBF73.
pioneer% uname -a
SunOS bugsy 5.9 Generic_117171-02 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2

        For 1.2.5 after ./configure:

/* created by config.links - do not edit */
/* Target: sparc-sun-solaris2.9 */

        For 1.2.6 after ./configure:

/* created by config.links - do not edit */
/* Target: sparc-sun-solaris2.9 */


options passed each time were --prefix=$HOME --enable-static-rnd=linux 
--disable-nls --with-zlib=/usr --with-bzip2=/usr

                                                        BL.
