 You personally have no way, but please do not speak for all of pkgsrc
 developers when you say things like this.
 I am a pkgsrc developer and ONLY use 'legacy' Solaris.  When Solaris
 10 is sufficiently broken in pkgsrc, you will find me gone.

 Please don't.  While a patch is always much appreciated, trying to fix
 this PR was on my todo list, but admittedly my time is limited at the
 moment.
