Hmm. Perl fails here, as it seems to be 32 bit. OpenSSL fails, due to
lack of libcryto, and TCL seems to fail due to lack of headers (though
I didn't look very hard). I'm assuming these issues are largely due to
my inexperience with Solaris, or are there some development packages
or similar I should be downloading?

Hmm, I'll have to see about upgrading it without annoying other users.

Thanks!
