Changing to Won't Fix as Solaris is not a supported platform.

It turned out the binaries are not stripped. It's just that dbx does not understand the debug info used by gcc by default. Changing the bug to reflect that.

Solaris binaries are currently built with -g which, according to the manual page, produces "debugging information in the operating system's default format". However, dbx does not understand that format, so producing backtraces with dbx is impossible. pstack does work.
