Okay, commented past that and now:

The LC_ALL comes from the setlocale() function. man setlocale says that LC_ALL is a constant defined in locale.h. What does Solaris want for the setlocale() function?

The scrollbar error is because I forgot to surround that section of code with:

#ifdef ENHANCED

scrollbars require a patch to tn5250 to work (and even then they don't actually work, rather it is proof of concept - but a "scrollbar" does show up on the screen). Looks like I need to fix that. In the mean time adding the #ifdef ENHANCED around that if statement should fix it for you.

The remaining problems look like they are a result of getopt_long() not being the same on solaris as it is on linux. On linux getopt_long looks like this:

       int getopt_long(int argc, char * const argv[],
                  const char *optstring,
                  const struct option *longopts, int *longindex);

and the option struct is:

          struct option {
              const char *name;
              int has_arg;
              int *flag;
              int val;
          };

What does Solaris want?
