Can you give dome info about the aim of this patch? I would expect that 
the solaris port will get committed to the opensolaris tree rather than 
going into our repository as a sparse tree, so it would get built 
outside our repository and our build environment. So I don't understand 
why we want a solaris config in our repository.
