"   On this I can tell you there's almost no chance of a problem there.
" Underlying CPU implementation features are barely even exposed under
" SunOS, much less able to be depended upon by userland software.

"   Heck, I've even run SunOS4 32-bit BSD-based binaries under SysV-based
" Solaris on 64-bit UltraSPARC systems.  I know I've done that under
" Solaris 9, not sure if I've done it on 10 or not.
