        Great :-) if you do a:

        'git diff'

        and just send the patch with some nice license is: MPL/LGPLv3+
statement, we can at least review and push to master :-)

        It's prolly a good idea to create a distro-config/OpenIndiana.conf or
somesuch and codify this little lot in there.

        Right - I -imagine- that (in general) the build system ( of which we
have both dmake and gnumake (transitioning to the latter) ) assumes that
Solaris == SUNPRO.

        IMHO, we should change that to Solaris == gcc - and remove all the old
sunpro cruft, without any attempt at adding conditionals for that heap
[ much easier too ;-]. As Michael Stahl says, that will mean some
hackery in:

        solenv/gbuild/platform/solaris.mk

        Hope that helps :-)

                Michael.
