Having done this before, the packages on Solaris can be very broad. You will 
find
that using the pkgrm method from SUNWCrnet, you will find the reductions in 
space used is not a great as you hoped. If you really want to strip Solaris 
down, and keep the ability to pkgrm/pkgadd, is to build your own packages.
