Right - as I said, this is something your sysadmin would need to change.
I did a general grep for the string '/tmp/' and '.X11-unix' in the source before, but it is almost not mentioned in the code. Is it something system-dependant, some shell-variable (didn't see it with 'env').
It's hardcoded in xc/lib/xtrans/Xtranssock.c, which is built into libX11 & Xsun.

Looks like you didn't link it with the correct -R flag (or LD_RUN_PATH) to find libfreetype at runtime.
Although I have a sparc-sun-solaris2.8 system now, I think the Xsun server is still the 2.6 one. I don't know how to check this.
That would be very hard to do unless whoever installed the system did something very strange. /usr/ccs/bin/mcs -p /usr/X/bin/Xsun should print the version number of the Solaris Xsun though. The Solaris 8 one will say "Solaris X11 Version 6.4.1" followed by the date of when it was built. The Solaris 2.6 one would say "OpenWindows 3.6".
