I've kept running in to it even in recent versions. The problem is that the data files are saved in little endian format, so they don't work on big endian machines.

For it to be truly fixed, the data files should be saved in a specific format (little or big) and the code should only support that format.

I don't know about 3.5.8, but I know earlier 3.5 releases had the problem.

I am no longer running Solaris (thank god) so I cannot test this.
