I believe I had the same error. One of the Makefiles in kexi doesn't include 
-lsocket on the link line. Following is a small patch which fixed it for me:

And while you are at it, there is another Solaris incompatibility in kexi. 
Solaris doesn't have mkdtemp, so I replaced it with the following:

        // Recreate it for the warning, mkdtemps emptied it
        QCString nme = QFile::encodeName(directoryPrefix) + "XXXXXX";

But I'm not sure whether this is the correct fix (it should probably be 
ifdef'd for __sun or so). I haven't tried kexi yet so I don't know whether it 
works at all on Solaris.
