Responding to my own post - looked it up, found:

http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/solaris/versions/

An OS with an August 1997 release date, superseded in October 1998, is bound to 
be a bit fragile w/r compilation of new source ten years on.

Likewise, hardware of that era is best employed as a low-reliability high-noise 
space heater nowadays, so Exim may not be the only thing you need to consider 
upgrading.

HTH,
