Sorry, but I can just repeat what I said in January on this issue:

As it fails just under Solaris 10/sparc64 and not Solaris 10/amd64 and
only with SSL enabled it seems to be a problem somewhere inside the
mod_ssl or OpenSSL area. I guess it is either an assembly code bug in
OpenSSL (what I don't really think) or a compiler code optimization
problem (what from my experience is the case here). But without in-depth
process debugging and running multiple lower-level OpenSSL tests one
usually will not detect the root of such a problem...
