How to repeat:
Get mysql 5.6.17 sources.
Unpack them.
Cwd to the sources directory, get an gcc and cmake.

Issue the following set of commands:

export CFLAGS="-g -m64"
export LDFLAGS="-g -m64"
export CXXFLAGS="-g -m64"
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/mysql -DENABLE_DTRACE=yes .

and wait for the crash to happen.

Suggested fix:
Add -lsocket -lnsl to a extra/CMakeFiles/comp_err.dir/link.txt file, and the build continues.

I guess same behaviour may be achieved by setting LDFLAGS.

Similar error happens later, so I guess setting proper LDFLAGS is mandatory until this will be fixed:

I can confirm that setting these LDFLAGS fixes the build on Solaris.

Then you was able to build on Solaris?. Thanks.
