Since you are not using the newest release, you should upgrade to that
to see if that fixes the problem.

Great. This tells us --line-buffer causes problems on your system
(thus it is probably not an issue with -S host1).
On my "SunOS solaris 5.10 Generic_147147-26 sun4u sparc
SUNW,Sun-Fire-V210 Solaris" it works. Both current release and
20140422.
So there is something odd happening on your system.
What is perl --version?
Mine is:
tange@solaris$ perl --version
This is perl, v5.10.1 (csw-5.10.1*) built for sun4-solaris-thread-multi
