Apparently Solaris is different in that regard (among others).

I notice in the Makefile in dtc/ that it's calling python. My default
python is 2.6.9. I found some discussion about qemu moving to python
3. Could this be the problem? Or is this dtc stuff really necessary?
Is there some way to comment it out just to see what happens? I didn't
see any mention of it in the configure help.

I feel like I'm getting pretty close to success here.
