Of course, you must set up proper CC, CFLAGS, LD_OPTIONS, CPPFLAGS, you
must know some tricks like -Du_intXX_t=uintXX_t etc ...

Come back to me when you build the current version of Cyrus-IMAP
(for example) with -xtarget=opteron -xarch=amd64 (or is the other
way around). Pkgmk/pkgtrans is optional, that I can do myself.

Huh! This one was nasty ... I'm administering 4 cyrus servers around,
but on Linux. I had never tried to compile it on Solaris. I had cyrus
sasl, OpenLDAP and krb5, and bdb libs on system, so I tried ... HUH! it
took me an hour, but I have compiled it in 64-bit mode WITH Sun cc and
CFLAGS you gave me.

You are a more patient man than I am. I ended up building dovecot
-- at least as 32-bit/gcc binary it builds out of the box.
