Apps binaries coring after cloning instance on Solaris 8 to Solaris 10

After cloning an instance which is on Solaris 8 to an instance which is on Solaris 10, various binaries are coredumping and creating huge core files in /var/crash/cores:

I tried executing these binaries from command line to see if they crashed, but they worked fine:

All reschedule information can be blank.

All the coredumping binaries belong to a single instance. I have suggested to the DBAs to relink all binaries through adadmin and see if the cores stop getting created. 

Metalink Note 456008.1 has information about relinkning ALECDC:

adrelink.sh force=y ranlib=y link_debug='Y' "alr ALECDC"

Metalink Note 467886.1 has information about relinking XDPCTRLS:

adrelink.sh force=y ranlib=y "xdp XDPCTRLS"
