Software that has been well written for portability does not givee problems
whencompiling on Solaris.
In former times, all software did follow Open Source ethics and was made
cleanly portable to all important platforms.
I really hope that the free availability of Solaris and Sun Studio will
change things back to a state we did have in the early 1990s where software
usually did work out of the box on SunOS.
