It looks like using Solaris procfs with LFS requires 64 bit binaries.

/usr/include/sys/procfs.h on Solaris 10 contains:

/*
 * This definition is temporary.  Structured proc is the preferred API,
 * and the older ioctl-based interface will be removed in a future version
 * of Solaris.  Until then, by default, including <sys/procfs.h> will
 * provide the older ioctl-based /proc definitions.  To get the structured
 * /proc definitions, either include <procfs.h> or define _STRUCTURED_PROC
 * to be 1 before including <sys/procfs.h>.
 */
#ifndef _STRUCTURED_PROC
#define _STRUCTURED_PROC        0
#endif

#if !defined(_KERNEL) && _STRUCTURED_PROC == 0

#include <sys/old_procfs.h>

#else

/* ... */

#if !defined(_LP64) && _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64
#error  "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment"
#endif

/* ... */

#endif

So the quick fix would be to compile that one binary by manually
adding -m64 to the command line:

$ gcc -m64 -D_REENTRANT=1 -I. -Igw -g -O2 -DSunOS=1
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/usr/include/libxml2 -o
utils/start-stop-daemon.o -c utils/start-stop-daemon.c

$ gmake # builds a few objects and then breaks again trying to link:
...
ld: fatal: file utils/start-stop-daemon.o: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to utils/start-stop-daemon
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake: *** [utils/start-stop-daemon] Error 1

$ gcc -m64 -D_REENTRANT=1 -I. -Igw -g -O2 -DSunOS=1
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/usr/include/libxml2  -o
utils/start-stop-daemon utils/start-stop-daemon.o libgw.a
libwmlscript.a libwap.a libgwlib.a -lrt -lresolv -lnsl -lsocket -lm
-lpthread -L/usr/lib -R/usr/lib -lxml2 -lz -lpthread -lm -lsocket
-lnsl
