 Why is --enable-pic needed? I believe it caused one of your problems and
 it would be good to understand the underlying problem better.

 the build instructions I've previously used and refined to a certain
 extent (mainly the configure).

 If {{{./configure && make}}} does not work, it would be great if you could
 report that.

 Sorry, I had forgotten: This was fixed a month ago, as said please test
 current FFmpeg git head.

 > Absolutely.  There is a much older version of gcc installed (3.4.3)
 which is stock standard installed for Solaris.  Any recommendations on a
 version you would suggest?  I'm not overly familiar with the gcc compiler.

 gcc 3.4.3 is so outdated that it might be better to fix the issues with
 your current compiler, a suggested version would be gcc 4.8.3.
