I have managed to produce a 4.3.0.1 binary on my old machine running the first release of Solaris 10. with sage -bdist, though I added some files. I've copied it to my home directory on t2. The trick is to include the GNU verson of 'cp' in the path before the Sun one. I also felt it was desirable to include the GCC libraries, so I added them in too. The binary can be found here http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/binaries/ This is compressed in lzma format, which is part of Solaris (both in recent versions of Solaris, and a patch available from SunSolve for older versions of Solaris). I need to check if that patch is public, but I think it is. However, I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS YET. But I intend testing it and installing on 't2'. There is of course and advantage in including your later release on 't2', but this one has the advantage it was compiled on the first version of Solaris 10, so is better suited for wide distribution. However, given my comments about the OpenSSL license being compatible with the GPL, and the fact the OpenSSL libraries do not come with Solaris, I think it would be wise if I uploaded those libraries, and created a new .binary with those libraries included. I will not however do that until there is agreement of my logic about the OpenSSL issue. For what it is worth, it used 2 hours of CPU time on my 500 MHz machine to create the lzma format binary, but it allowed me to upload it in a few hours. With hindsight, it would have been better to copy a tar file to a faster machine, and create the lzma format files there.
