Just because OpenSolaris is discontinued doesn't mean we don't support
it. It looks like it has been unsupported for ~3 years at this point
- not sure if that is long enough to remove the documentation
reference.
The patch looks otherwise sensible, but I note that we don't actually
have any Buildfarm members running Solaris > 10. So do we know for
sure that everything works there? Should we try to get one set up
before claiming we support the platform?
