This problem is caused by this change:
1. The 3rd arguments to getsockname(), getpeername(), and accept() in exim.c
and daemon.c were passed as pointers to ints; they should have been
pointers to socklen_t variables (which are typically unsigned ints).
Looks like socklen_t is something new in Solaris (which I didn't
realize). Just define it as an unsigned int. Unfortunately, C doesn't
contain a means of testing "is this type defined?" - otherwise I could
put in a default.
I'm not quite sure what to do about this, as there aren't separate
configuration files for different Solaris releases. It seems rather a
lot of effort to invent them just to support one old release. Is Solaris
6 still maintained? Do lots of people still run it?
