Beating this dead horse even more, the "can't/shouldn't do GPLV3"
is only a Sun-driven-distro issue; it is not necessarily an issue
for other distros like Nexenta, Schillix (or ...).

This says to me that, for OpenSolaris, the whole case should be
reviewed and integrated, with the GPLV3 stuff tagged in such a way
that Sun's distro makers can special case it (i.e., remove it...)

Given the political posturing going on over in LinuxLand, it is
unclear whether or not Linux distros will include GPLV3 stuff
either...
