I just tried this on my Ultra10, and I don't see the message (same
versions of programs you have, except I have a newer libc6).

Are you using different DNS servers for the Ultra10? You could try
upgrading the libc6, and possible the kernel (very old kernel). Does the
Ultra10 have ipv6 in the kernel? You could also try disabling that,
since I know ssh has some funkiness with ipv6.
