Darren, et.al., 

I believe precedent is already set by "/usr/xpg6/bin/stty".

My suggestion is to obsolete & EOF the xpg6 directory entirely:

1. merge the remaining "/usr/xpg6/bin/*" utilities into "/usr/bin/*" equivalents
and replace "/usr/xpg6/bin/*" with softlink, consistent with "stty" below.

    /usr/xpg6/bin/stty=../../../usr/bin/stty l none SUNWxcu6

2. After remaining "/usr/xpg6/..." entries are all softlinks to "/usr/..." 
equivalents,
the SUNWxcu6 packages could be simplified to the following and marked for
End Of Feature (EOF) in the next appropriate Solaris release:

    /usr d none 0755 root sys SUNWxcu6
    /usr/xpg6=../usr l none SUNWxcu6

A full listing of the few SUNWxcu6 items is listed below.

Cheers,
Joel
