It's curious, because I struggled to build NetBSD on Solaris 11.4.

This is one of the issues I reported for NetBSD-10 build, where
NAME_MAX is not defined in Solaris headers:
https://gnats.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=59222

$ uname -a
SunOS t4-node1-devel 5.11 11.4.81.193.1 sun4v sparc sun4v non-global-zone

$ cat test.c
#include <limits.h>

int main(void)
{
        return (int)NAME_MAX;
}


Lets try my custom GCC-13.3.0:
$ /opt/gcc/bin/gcc -D__EXTENSIONS__ test.c
test.c: In function 'main':
test.c:5:21: error: 'NAME_MAX' undeclared (first use in this function)
    5 |         return (int)NAME_MAX;
      |                     ^~~~~~~~
test.c:5:21: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in


Lets try Solaris GCC-14.2.0:
$ /usr/bin/gcc -D__EXTENSIONS__ test.c
test.c: In function 'main':
test.c:5:21: error: 'NAME_MAX' undeclared (first use in this function)
    5 |         return (int)NAME_MAX;
      |                     ^~~~~~~~
test.c:5:21: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

But may be you're building NetBSD-current and someone already fixed this
particular issue? Or maybe you have access to the latest patches from
Oracle and NAME_MAX is now defined in limits.h? I'm not sure.

Here are other issues:
