Author Weird errors trying to run Apache 2.051 on Solaris 8/9

Hi -- I tried getting apache 2.051 from
www.sunfreeware.com, wiping out my old
apache by removing the packages and
moving away /usr/local/apache* and
then pkgadding apache-2.051-sol8-sparc-local
on a Solaris 8 box and apache-2.051-sol9-sparc-local
for a Solaris 9 box.

In both cases running apachectl start failed
to start any httpd daemons and the logs/error_log
file had errors about

[alert] (22) Invalid argument: setgid: unable to set group id to Group 4294967295

then
[notice] Apache/2.0.51 (Unix) DAV/2 configured - resuming normal operations
[alert] Child 1205 returned a Fatal error... Apache is exiting!

All of this occurs from 11:02:53 to 11:02:54.
No apache is running afterwards.

Haven't had this kind of problem with Apache in the past.

Any thoughts anybody?
