Build BIND 9.9.3-P1 on Solaris 10 with 'cc', using OpenSSL built with 'gcc'?

That seems odd....though I haven't tried building 9.9.3-P1 yet.

But, all the previous releases built with gcc.  Our Solaris package build/management system only has gcc.

BIND 9.9.3 was the first BIND that got built 64-bit, which did take a little extra work in getting it find our 64-bit builds of openssl and zlib.

Which was basically to have it look in /usr/local/lib/(amd64|sparcv9) instead of just /usr/local/lib (had found in config.log that it was complain about architecture mismatch.)
