IIRC the output of ldd is something like

libraryNameInProgram => /where/it/maps/to/on/this/system

if the first is incorrect, you have to change you build system /
environment.  If the second is incorrect you have to change how ld is
set up on your system.

Thus it would sound, to me, like your system was behaving correctly and
the binaries should work on sun4m.
