Thank you for the information, I can now do the upgrade to 1.5.2 :)

I can try to help as much as I can. When executing "locale" in the
Solaris machine I get:

LANG=
LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.ISO8859-1
LC_NUMERIC=fi_FI.ISO8859-1
LC_TIME="C"
LC_COLLATE=fi_FI.ISO8859-1
LC_MONETARY=fi_FI.ISO8859-1
LC_MESSAGES=C
LC_ALL=

I'm not that familiar with locales.. not sure if it is okay or not to
have e.g. empty LC_ALL locale.
