Especially given that patches cannot be applied to the compilers when
installed on an OpenSolaris machine, which will soon be the only
supported build environment for the Nevada gates, so you'ld have to have
a second machine or VirtualBox instance set up running S10 or SXCE to
install and patch the compilers, and then copy to the OpenSolaris one.
