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

I have been building bind 9.x for years on Solaris with cc and no problem.
As for OpenSSL, well the issue seems trivial, most likely there is a downstream
lib dependency on libgcc.so or some gcc c++ libs perhaps. One merely needs
to setup a LD_OPTIONS correctly with care paid to LD_RUN_PATH and you
should be fine.  

Ultimately Oracle Studio 12.3 ( or Sun Studio or Forte or whatever the brand
name du jour is ) doesn't care where you put your libs so long as you say 
where to find them and have a match on the architecture.
