  Oops, sorry, didn't spot you were using newlib.  newlib doesn't work
with solaris; glibc might but in any case it's irrelevant; you don't
actually want or need either because you already have the C library (that
you preinstalled into $prefix/$target/lib) and header set (that is copied
into $prefix/$target/sys-include by the configure --with-headers option
and patched into $prefix/$target/include by fixincs).  Ditch newlib
altogether from the build tree and ditch the --with-newlib option if you
were using it.
