We actually have a couple of Solaris buildbots already - as I understand it, the issue there isn't Solaris as such, it's being able to use the Sun compiler instead of GCC to compile ctypes/libffi.

Does that mean that we need access to the Sun compiler or that the Sun compiler has bugs which prevent ctypes from compiling?

I don't think anyone's mentioned Solaris in this context, but there are claims that libffi "doesn't build" for AIX and HP-UX.
