The source system with GL support is

                        Solaris 10 5/09 s10x_u7wos_08 X86

                             Assembled 30 March 2009

The target system without GFL support is

                       Solaris 10 10/09 s10x_u8wos_08a X86

Interesting that the 6 months newer system says no to GL. I got the 
problem solved for now by editing config.make on the source system and 
removing  -lGL from the option list. The now built back can be synced 
to the target machine and works flawlessly there.

Any idea what the implications of removing -lGL might be?

Thanks a lot,

 Andreas
