Hi Luke,
I also experience similar situaltion. As a result of
code trace, I discover the non-logical code fragment
in gmond/solaris.c.
When getkval() func normally executes at
gmond/solaris.c, it returns 1. But caller code is
handled by error.
Let's view the following code fragment.
...
for (i = 0; i < ncpus; i++)
{
/* it places the kval in the basket ... errr cpu
struct */
if (getkval (cpu_offset[i], &cpu_snap, sizeof
(struct cpu), "cpu") ) <-- return 1; (normal return)
{
perror("cpustuff"); <-- but error!
}
...
Therefore, I think that "cpustuff: Permission denied"
is not error. Another thread probably sets this
variable because of errno variable is extern variable.
I don't understand why this code be inserted; but, I
expect some reason for the developer.
Currently, solaris code apparently contains some bug.
For example, gmond don't report about CPU utilization.
I try to analysis and programming about solaris.c.
But, I'm beginner about ganglia project.
If needs, I contribute to some patch code for
gmond/solaris.c in later.
Thanks again for the feedback this situation.

p.s I can't express well in English -.-; sorry~
