Good catch.  That patch contains a batch of libc performance
improvements, including this one:

	4782294 localtime_r is slow on Solaris when compared to Linux

The backtrace on the core file showed:

 feec45a8 set_zone_context (40211f52, 78474, 0, 0, 0, 0) + 8c
 feec3ba8 localtime_r (ffbff27c, ffbfed9c, 0, 0, 0, 0) + 20
 feeb996c ctime_r  (ffbff27c, ffbff260, 1a, 0, 0, 0) + c

I've pulled that patch from my Solaris 9 patch cluster.  Has anyone
reported the bug to Sun?
