I solved the problem by just upgrading to snv_54, where everything works as
expected. I do not know details, why my self-compiled progs are corrupt with
snv_53. I tested different gcc versions, from sunfreeware and from the CDROM.
While the binaries worked, if compiled on another SUN hardware,

Hi,
Most of the Open Solaris distros are only for x86 architectures,
though I could not check all of them because those projects are not
forthcoming about system requirements. The ones that do mention system
requirements make no mention of additional ZFS requirements.
