Solaris 11 ssh ControlMaster support?

Question

I am trying to run use "net::openssh" perl script, which is using ssh multiplexing  i.e. ControlMaster, and I am getting an error illegal option -- M..., is there any way to turn on multiplexing on Solaris 11 in the ssh client, or we are forcd to compile from source?
perl script used
#!/bin/perl -w
use Net::OpenSSH;
my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new(
  host,
  ssh_cmd => '/bin/ssh',
  timeout => 10,
  user => user,
  password => passwd
my @cmd = (ls => '-a');
$ssh->system(@cmd);
The script returns the errors below.
/bin/ssh: illegal option -- M
/bin/ssh: illegal option -- S
ssh: illegal option -- M
Usage: ssh [options] host [command]

unfortunately I didn't find any workaround, Solaris SSH is an old fork of openssh and dose not support the multithreading option. I cant comment on your Solaris 11 > Linux environment, most of our environment's where migrated from 10 to 11.1, and all I can say is Solaris rocks, features you find in Solaris you can find on any other OS in the market just to name a few ZFS, BE, IPS, FMA, SMF, etc..
