Perhaps you don't have 64-bit Solaris libs installed?  You'd find them in
/usr/lib/sparcv9.  The error message you originally posted indicated a
32-bit libdl.so.

I don't know about the kernel.  But you need sparcv9 shared libs.  Here is
what I have:

$ gcc -m64 hello.c -o hello
$ file hello
hello:          ELF 64-bit MSB executable SPARCV9 Version 1, dynamically
linked, not stripped
$ ldd hello
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/sparcv9/libc.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/sparcv9/libdl.so.1
        /usr/platform/SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-Engine/lib/sparcv9/libc_psr.so.1

These may belong to optional OS packages.
