No such thing these days, but your typescript shows that you are using
4.9.7.

Upgrade to at least 8.2, for your own good.

See a pattern?  You are missing all of your kernel include files [the
ones in /usr/include/sys].  You will have to either re-install them, or
point to where they are now.

You can find which packages contain these headers by doing a
	grep '/usr/include/sys ' /usr/var/sadm/install/contents
Most of them seem to be in SUNWhea.
