A few more questions. If you run configure with -v you should see something like

Determining machine byte-order...
([...]/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.5.2/mkspecs/solaris-cc yes
[...]/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.5.2
/nobackup/pfloyd/pending/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.5.2)
CC -c -O2  -I../../../mkspecs/solaris-cc -I. -I/usr/sfw/include -o endiantest.o
endiantest.cpp
CC -library=stlport4 -o endiantest endiantest.o    -L/usr/sfw/lib
    Found 'MostSignificantByteFirst' in binary
rm -f endiantest.o
rm -f *~ core *.core
rm -f endiantest
rm -f Makefile
Using big endian.

[in my case, Solris 10 on SPARC]

Could you run configure with -v and post the corresponding text?
