I just use these hacks on Solaris when building NetBSD:

mkdir /tmp/tools
ln -sf /usr/bin/gawk /tmp/tools/awk
ln -sf /usr/bin/gsed /tmp/tools/sed

export HOST_SH=/bin/bash
export HOST_CC=gcc
export HOST_CXX=g++
export PATH=/tmp/tools:/opt/gcc/bin:/usr/xpg6/bin:/usr/xpg4/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin


And xpg4 nm set in current path seems to work for me:

$ which nm
/usr/xpg4/bin/nm
