I'm not sure how the opensolaris tools for bfu work, but given that 
Clearview-UV made many changes to bfu, I'm cc-ing the clearview mailing
list to see if they have any suggestions. 

Clearview-experts: Jason is trying to convert the nge driver to brussels,
but seems to be running into trouble with post-attach (even without
his changes). The original thread is at 
  http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/driver-discuss/2008-February/005096.html

Do you have any insights into what he should look at?
