It is not easy possible to achieve. I'd say it would be impossible to
make it clean. The better way which we could follow in the future is to
port missing GLIBC functionality to SUN C library.
Uh, why would that be hard? Solaris and Linux binaries doesn't hardcode
the same elf interpreter, so you'd just put the solaris ld.so in
/usr/lib (where it's hardcoded that it should go) and make sure its
default rpath includes something like /usr/lib/sparc-sunos-sun (or what
the architecture's triplet is). You'd obviously want to ship the
Solaris libc and any other needed libs there.
