Pretty much the same as on any other platform. The documentation
explains how to build GCC in detail.

That's up to you to decide. But GNU and non-GNU assemblers and
linkers should work.

It's part of GCC.

If you intend to use GCC, you don't have to purchase Sun WorkShop. A
development installation of Solaris (i.e., one that contains all the
header files and the C runtime object files, as well as an assembler
and a linker) should be enough.
