I verified that the bug is there also in a Solaris 1.2 JDK, which should have
been released directly by JavaSoft. Should this be enough as a proof that it's
not a problem with the Blackdown port?
Of course I have also the code that shows the bug.

Indeed it should be, but I get it also as root. I can confirm because I've
tested it again now.

Sure. It worked perfectly, that file showed the ls output, including colors.

Nope. No errors and the files has exactly the ls output.

Same here:

drwxrwxrwt  24 root     root         6144 Dec  3 13:06 /tmp/

It works, thank you very much. 

Just another question, please, can I miss something important by asking to the 
JDK not to bother with the version check?
If there is a way, I'd like to help you (or who takes care of the checkVersions
script) to fix this little bug.
