[OpenIndiana-discuss] running sunpro binaries

hi again,

i tried to run something compiled with sunpro on solaris 11 on indiana and it almost worked. i put the 
additional libs in place and everything looked fine. however, running the program in question failed 
with:

ld.so.1: prog: fatal: prog: hardware capability (CA_SUNW_HW_2) unsupported: 0x80  [ RDSEED ]

of course the first impression is that the cpu simply doesn't support RDSEED but that's not the case. it 
does support it and the program in question runs fine on the same machine under solaris 11.
so it seems like something sunpro produces gets misinterpreted.

maybe someone else ran into the same problem and found a solution?

as usual, any insight would be most welcome!
