      historical reasons, /usr/sfw/ is going away. See this case for OpenSSL:

      I'm waiting for SUNWcry* packages removal. This should happen in snv_77, 
I'm planning that move for snv_80. That's why one can see SUNWcry* packages in 
S10u4 by default - the legal work was done but it was easier to ship those 
packages in S10 than to merge libcrypto/ssl with the extra stuff.
