Just built 4.3.22 on my Solaris 10 with gcc version 3.4.6

bash-3.00$ uname -a
SunOS oregano 5.10 Generic_127111-06 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60

Repeating your 4 test cases, these all work for me :-

oregano.shadymint.com.combo= oregano.shadymint.com.http && 
oregano.shadymint.com.bbd

bash-3.00$ combostatus --no-update --debug

Lastly, my original fault regarding arithmetic still works :-

oregano.shadymint.com.combo=\
(\
  oregano.shadymint.com.http +\
  oregano.shadymint.com.bbd +\
  oregano.shadymint.com.procs\
)\
 >=3
