A quick look through defs.SunOS.mk yields the following programs which
exist in /usr/xpg4/*:

EGREP?=         /usr/xpg4/bin/egrep
ID?=            /usr/xpg4/bin/id
SED?=           /usr/xpg4/bin/sed
TAIL?=          /usr/xpg4/bin/tail

I must admit that I didn't really notice what packages were installed
when the Solaris support was originally made, sorry.

Anyway, I'm fairly sure that someone once posted a list of Solaris OS
packages that needed to be installed for pkgsrc on Solaris - I just
can't find it at the moment. But I'm also fairly sure that the xpg4
one is needed - see above.

Regards,
Alistair
