That doesn't seem to show up on bugs.opensolaris.org -- is there any more to the bug that isn't obvious from the synposis? Just from the synopsis, I poked around for a few minutes and came up with this: http://cr.opensolaris.org/~jbk/mdb-disasm I just borrowed the code from /usr/bin/dis with suitable modifications to select the correct disassembler :) It seems to work on sparc from a bit of testing I've done (tried v8, v8+, and v9 bins). I don't have a box sufficiently updated to build it on X86 yet (a couple of x86-specific flag days I haven't caught up on) with the latest ON snapshot though. I've cc'ed mdb-discuss in case anyone around there wants to comment on the webrev (I don't think the rest of the discussion is particularly relevant for that list). If this change does address the bug completely (and I've not missed something -- I'm not very familiar with the mdb code), if someone would want to act as a code reviewer, I'll grab a sponsor and have it putback.
