No I see now... it is an opensolaris (or solaris > 10?) issue, not a
solaris <=10 issue, as up through 10 it does not have
<netpacket/packet.h>

The 'better' patch (that is now in python 2.7, 3.1 & 3.2) is here:

  http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/f5e3de87b14b/

and they will not backport it to 2.6.x since it is not a security fix.

Sounds like that 'better' patch should be added to pkgsrc/lang/python26
