Strange, I have the same error with gcc 4:

./mkbuiltins -D . printf.def
/opt/csw/gcc4/bin/gcc -c  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DSHELL  -I. -I..  -I.. 
-I../include -I../lib -I.  -DSOLARIS  -I/opt/csw/include -O2 -pipe 
-mcpu=v8 printf.c || ( rm -f printf.c ; exit 1 )
./printf.def:175: error: conflicting types for 'vsnprintf'
gmake[3]: *** [printf.o] Error 1

and gcc 3:

./mkbuiltins -D . printf.def
/opt/csw/gcc3/bin/gcc -c  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DSHELL  -I. -I..  -I.. 
-I../include -I../lib -I.  -DSOLARIS  -I/opt/csw/include -O2 -pipe 
-mcpu=v8 printf.c || ( rm -f printf.c ; exit 1 )
./printf.def:175: error: conflicting types for 'vsnprintf'
./printf.def:175: error: conflicting types for 'vsnprintf'
gmake[3]: *** [printf.o] Error 1


Maybe you could first send me the config.log/config.h generated on 
Solaris 8 so I can compare with mine ?
