It seems to work under Solaris 9, compiled with GCC 3.3.2, 64 bit.

Although memcached seems to run quite a bit faster on a Dell PowerEdge 
Pentium III Celeron 800mhz with 2gb RAM over a Sun 280R dual UltraSPARC 
III 900mhz with 6gb RAM..  :)

I don't have an older system to try it out on, though.. Ideally you'd 
need someone to compile/run this on Solaris 7 or 8, since that's the 
most common one out there. If you really need it, I can probably build 
one out on Monday.

BTW; if you need access to a Solaris box to test stuff on/play on, I can 
put one up on the 'net for you.. I have a few of them laying around at 
work that I replaced with Intel boxes.
