Honestly, I don't know much about Sol10, but on Sol8 & 9 there was a
command for configuring the runtime linkers path called crle
(configure runtime linker environment).

Its usage is quite self-explanatory. Just add /usr/local/lib to it, e.g.
(my sol7 development server)

[root@blop:~]> crle

Configuration file: /var/ld/ld.config  
  Default Library Path (ELF):   /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/openssl/lib:/opt/openssl-0.9.7e/lib:/opt/mysql4/lib:/opt/openldap2/lib:/opt/oracle/client/8.1.7/lib:/opt/subversion/lib:/usr/local/pgsql/lib
  Trusted Directories (ELF):    /usr/lib/secure  (system default)

Command line:
  crle -c /var/ld/ld.config -l /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/openssl/lib:/opt/openssl-0.9.7e/lib:/opt/mysql4/lib:/opt/openldap2/lib:/opt/oracle/client/8.1.7/lib:/opt/subversion/lib:/usr/local/pgsql/lib

and you are done.

Did you analyze the core file with a debugger, e.g. gdb from sunfreeware.com?
If you have amounts of harddisc space, open the rundig script with vi,
look for the htdig command and add the following before the htdig call:

truss -wall -fall -eall -o <where the logfile should go> htdig -s -a -c ...

Then you will get some debugging output, which you can take a look at.
I don't know much about this dtrace thingie, so I prefer a housewife's iron 
over some unknown hi-tech utility ... :)

Just as some help, here ist my configure string:

LDFLAGS="-L/opt/openssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto" CPPFLAGS="-Wno-deprecated" CXXFLAGS="-Wno-deprecated" ./configure --prefix=/opt/htdig-3.1.6-ssl --with-config-dir=/opt/htdig-3.1.6-ssl/conf --with-database-dir=/opt/htdig-3.1.6-ssl/db/default --with-cgi-bin-dir=/opt/htdig-3.1.6-ssl/bin --with-image-dir=/opt/htdig-3.1.6-ssl/htdocs/images --with-search-dir=/opt/htdig-3.1.6-ssl/htdocs --with-image-url-prefix=/images --with-common-dir=/opt/htdig-3.1.6-ssl/common/default --with-rx

[root@blop:/data/BUILD/htdig]> pkgparam SMCgcc VERSION
3.3.2
