We've seen some reports suggesting that Solaris has a problem with the
all-ones netmask.  You could probably get it to work either by
loosening the netmask a little:

host    all         all         127.0.0.1         255.255.255.0   trust

or by using CIDR style:

host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32   trust
