   You do know that Solaris is SVR4/ELF, not BSD/a.out, right?  I would
   expect that the ld.so* would want to use /emul/svr4 instead of
   /emul/sunos.


solaris-2.6 ~> file /usr/lib/ld.so*
/usr/lib/ld.so: Sun demand paged SPARC executable dynamically linked
/usr/lib/ld.so.1:       ELF 32-bit MSB dynamic lib SPARC Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped


the ld.so is the old a.out loader ... this is how sun do the a.out trick.
