Dia 0.88.1 works perfectly on my Ultra5 running Solaris 8.  I'm compiling
with gcc 2.95.2 / GNU make 3.78.1.  A simple ./configure; gmake built dia
without errors.

If I recall, GDK-Pixbuf was a pain to install, but if you've successfully
installed all of the required libraries then you should be fine.
