It would be helpful if you could tell us the actula error message :)

Without the error message I cnanot really say what went wrong, but command.C
does not seem to need anything out of signal.h.

Of course, solaris being what it is.... I'd still like to investigate this
:)

It's not clear to me what "virtual boundaries" are. Again, it would help if
you just described the actual problem.

Neither of these are likely to be fixed in CVS. I do use rxvt-unicode on
solaris (2.8) from time to time and it seems to work fine (I didn't built
it there myself, though, so I don't know what had to be done).

It's possible that your problems are related. Are you sure you are picking
the right set of header files? AFAIC, solaris has multiple sets of
headers, and some of these miss vital things like SIGWINCH, which could be
the source of your problem.
