I'm puzzled by this, there are actually a very large number of (something like 10) 64-bit Solaris targets in the regular Tachyon Make- arch file. Have you looked within the Make-arch file? I would be curious to know what you needed that wasn't there. I'm happy to share my pre-release sources for the next Tachyon so people can give me feedback and I can address any issues that linger here.
