And don't forget, Solaris 7 was the first version to support actual
64-bit executables.  2.6 runs on 64-bit hardware, but doesn't run
64-bit executables.

Was  the problem code compiled under Solaris 7 on an UltraSPARC
machine?  That might explain why it doesn't work on a sun4c or sun4m
running Solaris 2.6.
