I wonder if this is a problem with gcc 4 on Solaris. The OP is
using Solaris 8/gcc 4.0.2 and the previous complaint involved
Solaris 10/gcc 4.0.0. My Solaris 9/gcc 3.4.2 box builds fine,
as does the Solaris 10/gcc 3.3.2 box buzzard in the buildfarm.

Here's what I get on Solaris 9/gcc 3.4.2 for the isinf check:

configure:14213: checking for isinf
configure:14235: gcc -o conftest [...]
conftest.c: In function `main':
conftest.c:101: warning: implicit declaration of function `isinf'
conftest.c:101: warning: unused variable `res'
Undefined first referenced
symbol in file
isinf /var/tmp//cckdOuCS.o
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to conftest
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:14241: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
[...]
configure:14266: result: no
