I'll get back to you with the official Sun support on older CPU equipment
but I haven't seen anything less than an Ultra II in a long time and we
have a LOT of legacy equipment as well as new stuff.

I am certainly willing to help build packages if it's just spinning the
build.
In fact I'm willing to spin a sun4v build. 

As to 64-bit perl. I'm looking at databases upwards of 25 million records.
That's future. Right now, in terms of 256 file descriptors and 4GB of
memory:
1. Ever hear of Orca? It launches a bunzip2 child for every orcallator
file it finds. My Data Warehouse generates about 35 of them a day itself.
Then you have about 65 other physical machines and their child virtual
hosts (zones). so there's 256 processes.
2. 4GB of memory http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=1814327
3. 64 bit arithmetic anyone? Deal in network metrics for gigabit
Ethernet...

@bonivart: yes the link flags need adjustment. I have some build failures
of XS modules details later.
