OK, but is the gss server able to actually acquire these creds?  Usually,
the server gets its credentials from  a keytab file (/etc/krb5/krb5.keytab
on Solaris 9).

No, rebooting Solaris will probably not help.

What is the gssapi client requesting in it's initial token? 

You might try analyzing the token that the gss-server is receiving
to make sure it is getting an initial token that requests the Kerberos
OID.
