You are at the right place.

There is not enough information to understand the problem.  Obviously
a lot of people use GNU ls on Solaris and it works fine for them.
Therefore a suspicion of it being your particular ls command being the
problem pops up.  Perhaps you have an older version which did not
auto-configure properly on your platform?  Without version information
or indeed a test case it is going to be hard to reproduce the problem.

The latest release is available at:

  ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/fetish/fileutils-4.1.tar.gz

If you could update and report any bugs against that version it would
be most appreciated.

Bob
