Thanks for the report. Not sure that it's worth our taking any action though.
The last release of Solaris 9 was 10 years ago, and it has been end-of-life'd
by Oracle.
For reference: Solaris 9 EOL
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris10/overview/index...
In short it means Solaris 9 is no longer eligible for any Oracle updates
including security updates, fixes, patches or any other changes. Solaris 9
went into sustaining support in October 2014.
Since Oracle is no longer providing any patches for this OS, I don't see much
reason for us to either. Fortunately you are free to patch and build OpenLDAP
for yourself for as long as you wish.
