hehe thats what i did:P 

A simple test could be doing something like this.

INSTALLTEST="`which ginstall`"

if test -x "$INSTALLTEST";then
echo
elif test "$SOLARIS" = "yes";then
echo
echo "Warning: ginstall not found, install might not work."
echo "If you do have ginstall make sure it is in your path."
echo
INSTALLTEST="`which install`"
else
INSTALLTEST="`which install`"
fi

Of course you'll have to change $SOLARIS test to use the variables used in configure. 

Oh yeah, there is also something wrong with libmp3. When used as audio codec the sound sounds like shit, scratchy and full of noise. This is probably  just something that affects solaris though. Using ffmp3 works fine.
