I have no idea how things are going on Solaris, but I would be happy to
have it working, and will help (with limited time) where I can to get it
working and into the tree.
Also, using FAM on Solaris (Christians port) I've had segfaults occur,

Solaris does indeed have /etc/mnttab, but it is not writable. Nor

I did a quick grep of the sources, and noticed the error message in
FileSystemTable.c++.
Looking around a little more, I notice at line 109, the mtab (or
equivalent) file is being opened with mode "r+" (read-write existing file).
I agree that there is no obvious reason why the file should be opened
read-write.
I'll file a bug and make a patch.
