Having had some fun with getrusage in the past (see the list archives) 
I can tell you that ns/mem-trace.h utilises getrusage on Solaris
2.5.1, but not on Solaris 2.4.

resource.h ('UNPUBLISHED PROPRIETARY SOURCE CODE OF AT&T' -
lovely...) is in /usr/include/sys on our and I believe most other 
2.5.1 machines, as your man page indicates.

I tend to have to build (slooooowly) on Solaris 2.4 in order to have a
binary that works across both 2.4 and 2.5.1; you could either find a
copy of resource.h, change HAVE_GETRUSAGE, or fiddle with mem-trace.h,
or build on 2.4.
