I thought initially the same, but:
$ /usr/bin/nm -D nvidia-470/NVIDIA-Solaris-x86-470.141.03/NVDAgraphics/reloc/X11/lib/modules/extensions/NVIDIA/amd64/libglx.so.1|fgrep -i glx
nvidia-470/NVIDIA-Solaris-x86-470.141.03/NVDAgraphics/reloc/X11/lib/modules/extensions/NVIDIA/amd64/libglx.so.1:
[55] | 10124656| 35|FUNC |GLOB |0 |12 |__glXNvHandShake
[60] | 14546160| 24|OBJT |GLOB |0 |22 |glxModuleData
[7] | 14546032| 24|OBJT |GLOB |0 |22 |glxserver_nvidiaModuleData
$ /usr/bin/nm -D nvidia/NVIDIA-Solaris-x86-515.76/NVDAgraphics/reloc/X11/lib/modules/extensions/NVIDIA/amd64/libglx.so.1|fgrep -i glx
nvidia/NVIDIA-Solaris-x86-515.76/NVDAgraphics/reloc/X11/lib/modules/extensions/NVIDIA/amd64/libglx.so.1:
[55] | 10128960| 35|FUNC |GLOB |0 |12 |__glXNvHandShake
[61] | 14550512| 24|OBJT |GLOB |0 |22 |glxModuleData
[6] | 14550384| 24|OBJT |GLOB |0 |22 |glxserver_nvidiaModuleData
$
and 470.141.03 seems to work okay (at least this is my understanding from OP).
