Thanks for the info.  The problem seems specific to Solaris, it hasn't
been reported before.

It looks like there is an issue with signed-vs-unsigned char in the
preparation of the data to be sorted (they should all be positive, but
there is a -128 in the original data).  The actual code looks correct
to me.

If you want to investigate it further the function where that is done
is "FUNCTION(my, initialize)" at line 159 in sort/test_source.c -- I
can't really offer any more than that from here.
