I tried loading AST from SqueakMap into Squeak3.9-final-7067.image
on a Linux box, exactly as you described above. It worked fine,
so I think this may be a VM issue on Solaris.

I'm not very familiar with SunOS, but I assume you are running
on a 32 bit processor and your SunOS is a 32 bit system (32 bit
pointer size), is that right? If it's a 64 bit system, there could
be some issues, for example <http://bugs.impara.de/view.php?id=5688>.

If it does turn out to be a VM issue, the vm-dev list is a good
place to follow up.
