Follow-up Comment #3, bug #26868 (project findutils):

Actually, this may be an instance of the bug that gnulib commit 833333 was
designed to fix.  In other words, the Solaris bug is that HUGE_VAL was defined
as a function address rather than a floating point constant, so
(-1.0*HUGE_VAL) will be just as much of a syntax error as -HUGE_VAL.  And if
I'm correct, you should revert commit 8ba9443ed5 from findutils, and instead
merely assure that you are using the gnulib module math from a new enough
snapshot of gnulib.  But I don't have access to an x86_64 Solaris machine to
quickly confirm this.
