How about doing an MD5 sum on the files on each machine? That will tell you if the files are faithful copies.
Are you trying to run a binary from one machine OS/architecture on a different OS/architecuture?

optisa(1) User Commands optisa(1)
NAME
optisa - determine which variant instruction set is optimal to use
SYNOPSIS
optisa instruction_set...
DESCRIPTION
optisa prints which instruction_set out of the ones specified in the command will perform best on this machine. In this case, ``best''
is defined by the order in which instruction set names are returned by isalist(1). Possible values for instruction_set are given in
isalist(5).
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
|Availability |SUNWcsu |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 One of the instruction_set values you specified is printed by this command.
1 There is no output; that is, this machine cannot use any instruction_set that you specified with the optisa command.
SEE ALSO
isalist(1), uname(1), attributes(5), isalist(5)
NOTES
optisa is preferable to uname -p or uname -m (see uname(1)) in determining which of several binary versions of a given program should be
used on the given machine.
