But no.  On plain Solaris 2.5.1:

turan ~ % uname -a
SunOS turan.cs.elte.hu 5.5.1 Generic_103640-01 sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-10
turan ~ % ls -l foo
ls: foo: No such file or directory
turan ~ % mkfifo foo
mkfifo: cannot make fifo `foo': Invalid argument

My home directory is NFS mounted from Linux.  Fifos work in directories
mounted from Ultrix.
