Setting ufstype=sun will indeed work for loopback mounting Ultrix CD images.
With physical CDs, the Linux CD-ROM driver expects the filesystem to use
2048 byte blocks but the UFS CDs have 512 byte blocks. So you'll also
have to add "loop" to the options:
sudo mount -t ufs -o ro,ufstype=sun,loop /dev/sr1 /tmp/mount
That will mount the physical CD using a loopback device so you can
access the 512 byte per block filesystem. (FWIW, I learned that trick
with IRIX EFS CDs, which have the same problem.)
We have a winner:

Great, thanks for that. I would probably have never guessed that I
needed loop.
