This works for me, though a better long term answer might be /usr/suncc/$VERSION/, which would allow one to install other unbundled releases alongside AND for you to be able to gracefully support the transition from 2008.11 to 2009.xx and 2009.yy going forward, not to mention providing an architecture for installing Express and full Studio releases there as well. Taking a step back, all that posturing about how bundling makes it different and special doesn't ring true to me - it more like the unstated focus is on "how do we do this quickly without wasting engineering resources on it and without being forced to change the status quo elsewhere in the compiler/studio world." -John
