Solaris 10/x86 happens to be one of the platforms that I test-compiled
Hobbit on before the release.

I think you're missing some packages by doing just a "core" install.
Check the files /usr/include/stdlib.h and /usr/include/iso/stdlib_iso.h; 
they should be 9296 and 5383 bytes, respectively. The latter one
contains the definition of "NULL" which your compiler claims does not
exist.

Again, these are really essential system library routines that are not
defined by your build environment. Without these you just cannot
compile very much C code.
