Hi Joe

we are using a pre-compiled pound package from a solaris repository:
http://www.blastwave.org/jir/pkgcontents.ftd?software=pound2&style=brief&state=5&arch=sparc
we download the binaries for sparc or intel machine accordingly.
The information about the package:
software pound2
pkgname CSWpound2
description 2.x branch of the Pound reverse proxy, load balancer and
HTTPS front-end for Web server(s)
vendor url http://www.apsis.ch/pound/
version 2.4.4
revision 2009-01-15

The apache configuration to add the certificate in the HEADER that
goes to the pound is:
in general config:
SSLOptions +StdEnvVars +ExportCertData +CompatEnvVars +StrictRequire
RequestHeader set SSL_CLIENT_CERT %{SSL_CLIENT_CERT}e
in the location that goes through the pound
<Location /application/html/acceso>
        SSLVerifyClient require
        SSLVerifyDepth  10
        SSLOptions +StdEnvVars +ExportCertData
        ProxyPass http://localhost:50238/application/html/acceso
        ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:50238/application/html/acceso
</Location>

best regards
José
