I had a similar experience, but not quite exact (slightly different
compiler version.).


Under UltraSparc Solaris 8,

 - gcc 3.2.3 could compile emacs 21.3 and the resulting binary could
   compile emacs lisp libraries.

 - gcc 3.3 could compile emacs 21.3, but the resulting binary
   failed to compile emacs lisp libraries. During the compilation of
   one of the lisp files, the resulting binary seg-faulted!
   This is very similar to what is observed in the original bug report.

So I had to downgrade to 3.2.3.

Since the compiler binary is fetched from
   http://www.sunfreeware.com
I don't have exact details regarding the compile options.
(However, it seems to be a straight forward 
  configure
  make bootstrap 
   ...
)

I will check if I can glean more information by reading
bugs.html page.

I am writing this still since the similar experience
on different architecture points to a real bug (not a bogus one).
