I compiled 20100501 on OpenSolaris...

A quick look at TYPE_IPV4 in the source isn't showing me why it wouldn't 
work.  What configure options are you using?

If there is already a form library in /usr/lib/sparcv9, that could be
the problem.  (Order of -L options is a problem for other reasons -
a tradeoff between different linkers).
