Sorry Chris, IPv6 network interfaces not available on my machine.

Form the Solaris 10 man pages following are the predefined macros:

               __BUILTIN_VA_ARG_INCR
               __cplusplus
               __DATE__
               __FILE__
               __LINE__
               __STDC__ = 0
               __SVR4
               __SUNPRO_CC = 0x580
               __SUNPRO_CC_COMPAT = 4 or 5
               __sun
               sun
               __TIME__
               __`uname -s`_`uname -r` (replacing invalid charac-
               ters with underscores, for example: -D__SunOS_5_8,
               -D__SunOS_5_9)
               __unix
               unix
               _WCHAR_T
               __ARRAYNEW if the "array" forms of operators new
               and delete are enabled
                   _BOOL if type bool is enabled

FYI:

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/xsh_chap02_10.ht
ml

 A select() operation testing the ability to write to a socket shall
return true only if the send low water mark could be processed. The
default value for SO_SNDLOWAT is implementation-defined and
protocol-specific. It is implementation-defined whether the SO_SNDLOWAT
option can be set.

Also according to Solaris 10 man page following options are supported
for setsockopt() SO_DEBUG, SO_BROADCAST, SO_REUSEADDR, SO_KEEPALIVE,
SO_LINGER, SO_OOBINLINE, SO_SNDBUF, SO_RCVBUF, SO_DONTROUTE

SO_SNDLOWAT and SO_RCVLOWAT are not even supported on HP-UX.
