Hello, As everyone probably knows, the one thing keeping a fully open-source OpenSolaris distro from happening is the godforsaken libc_i18n.a in closed_bins. The rest of closed_bins can be replaced with BSD/GNU code should the distro manager deem it neccessary.

I'm not sure everything else in closed_bins can be replaced with BSD/GNU code.

For example, while in theory it should be possible to use Racoon rather than the closed_bins in.iked it is a non trivial amount of work. If you don't do that you don't have any IKE for IPsec. Thats just one example.
