Have you tried using GNU ld? Solaris' default ld is inadequate in many instances. I would suggest adding --enable-sigchild to your command line, too. Sadly, though, I can't remember WHY -- and I apologize. I remember having problems with an earlier version of PHP, and letting PHP handle SIGCHLD internally fixed the problem.
