OK, then I'm afraid you'll have to help me debug this, as I don't have
access to such a client.

What implementation of SSH are you using on Solaris?  Are you using
any local mods, or any non-default configuration parameters?

> bash-2.03$ src/stty rows 0 columns 0
> bash-2.03$ src/stty size
> src/stty: standard input: no size information for this device

That last line should have been "0 0".  Can you please try the
following commands, from a fresh terminal?

truss -v ioctl src/stty size
src/stty rows 0 columns 0
truss -v ioctl src/stty size

The last command should output something that ends like this, but
apparently the last TIOCGWINSZ call is doing the wrong thing on your host:

ioctl(0, TCGETS, 0xFFBEF9A8)                    = 0
