I thought I fixed this a while back:

20111030
        + add configure check to decide when to add _XOPEN_SOURCE define to
          compiler options, i.e., for Solaris 10 and later (cf: [184]20100403).
          This is a workaround for gcc 4.6, which fails to build the c++
          binding if that symbol is defined by the application, due to
          incorrectly combining the corresponding feature test macros
          (report by Peter Kruse).

thanks - I'll take a look.
