That's a directory.

This is the one most people use.

This is the 64-bit version of the one above -- transparently used on
64-bit machines, no need to call it specifically.
> /usr/ucb/ld
This is a wrapper script that calls /usr/ccs/bin after defining
LD_RUN_PATH for olde-fashioned SunOS 4.x compatibility mode. NOT
recommended unless you need it for some strange reason.
Seriously, the one in /usr/ccs/bin will do what you need it to do, and the
only better one might be that one that comes in the SUNWspro packages,
which aren't free or included with Solaris...
