I'm guessing it's the # substitution in that line. Which shell are you
using? It's a long time since I used Solaris but there used to be
/usr/xpg4/bin/sh that was more like the shells commonly found on Linux.
Perhaps you could use that. Alternatively you may be able to replace
the above line with:

      echo $output_flags

it occurs in several places in configure.
