[issue4919] 2.6.1 build issues on solaris with SunStudio 12

The original report isn't very useful; without further constructive feedback from the OP I agree this issue should be closed.  For example:

What is this mysterious 'HUGE_VAL aka infinity' issue---it's not made clear anywhere that I can see?  A build failure, I assume (from the title).  But at what stage of the build?  What's the revelant error message (and surrounding context from the build output)?  Exactly how was Python configured and built?

Is there some context I'm missing, like an attachment containing a build log or something?
