Unfortunately, it's way worse than that:

* <endian.h> isn't even needed at all: gdb master still compiles with
  that include removed.

* Once this is fixed, the Solaris build still fails with several
  instances of

/vol/src/gnu/gdb/hg/master/dist/libctf/ctf-hash.c: In function 'ctf_hashtab_insert':
/vol/src/gnu/gdb/hg/master/dist/libctf/ctf-hash.c:141:7: error: 'errno' undeclared (first use in this function)
  141 |       errno = -ENOMEM;
      |       ^~~~~

  It turns out that ctf-impl.h (for reasons that completely escape me)
  includes <sys/errno.h> instead of <errno.h>.  Once that is fixed, the
  amd64-pc-solaris2.11 libctf build at least finishes.

* There are still quite a number of warnings that I didn't bother look
  into (all seen with gdb 9.1.0 on Solaris 11.5/x86):

  E.g. qsort_r is a glibc addition not present on Solaris (and NetBSD,
  it seems), bzero would need <strings.h> if really necessary rather
  than using memset.

I'll never understand why some Oracle guys find it so hard to locate
some Solaris box in the company and try that stuff there.  After all,
CTF and libctf originated on Solaris and adding it to binutils-gdb
shouldn't break the Solaris build.
