Thank you for the information!

This means that a normal Solaris user will not be confused but a user that 
did install /opt/SUNWsamfs may be confused if a SAMfs program named "star"
will not be called via a full PATH name.

Note: star exists since 1982 and uses the name "star" since 1985. Star is the
oldest free "tar" implementation.
