Have him check that all the files from the "ldso" package were
correctly installed - or perhaps reinstall them anyway.  I've appended
its file list, from /var/adm/packages/ldso.

PACKAGE NAME:     ldso
COMPRESSED PACKAGE SIZE:     59 K
UNCOMPRESSED PACKAGE SIZE:     170 K
PACKAGE LOCATION: diska2
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
ldso:     ld.so 1.5.3, the dynamic linker/loader.
ldso:
ldso:     ld.so completes the final process of linking all necessary references
ldso:     to sharable objects and unreferenced symbols in an impure executable,
ldso:     (usually a dynamically linked executable), to produce a runnable file.
ldso:     Nearly all Linux binaries in a.out format will be 'incomplete' and
ldso:     require further linking at run time. ld.so's job is thus to complete
ldso:     the linking process started at compilation. ld.so was written by David
ldso:     Engel, Eric Youngdale, Peter MacDonald, Hongjiu Lu, Linus Torvalds,
ldso:     Lars Wirzenius and Mitch D'Souza.
