"strndup" is missing on the link.  I did a cursory search and it is
not part of opensolaris, I didn't see an obvious fix:

Undefined			first referenced
 symbol  			    in file
strndup                             ssl.o
ld: fatal: symbol referencing errors. No output written to openconnect
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

OK, it was operator error.... I was supplying the "https://" prefix 
(as shown at http://www.infradead.org/openconnect.html)... leaving
that prefix off and simply supplying the FQDN works and I'm in!
