Digium do still have the Solaris version of their codec on their 
download site and the following url:

http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/codec_g729/unsupported/

This codec is at version 32, whereas the latest is at 33. We tried this 
codec with valid licenses too, but the codec just fails to load in Asterisk.

I was under the impression that the "free" codec required the Intel IPP 
libraries to be available on the system, or, statically linked into the 
codec. How would one build the codec if you could not link in a Solaris 
version of the IPP libraries, or am I missing something fundamental here?
