want to add it seems with a chage in env var users get the opensolaris
userland.

SUN_PERSONALITY execve() system call logic implemented and it is finally allows
Solaris-centric scripts to be executed in NexentaOS without modification

Personalities
The default behavior of NexentaOS is to search for execution binaries in order
described in the PATH. Standard locations such as /usr/bin and /usr/sbin all
populated with GNU binaries, which makes NexentaOS behave as GNU system. SUN
binaries saved in /usr/sun/bin and /usr/sun/sbin locations and system could be
forced to use SUN-like personality by utilizing SUN_PERSONALITY environment
variable.
SUN_PERSONALITY execve() system call logic implemented and it is finally allows
Solaris-centric scripts to be executed in NexentaOS without modifications.
Simple SUN_PERSONALITY=1 environment variable will switch execution paths on
the fly to look on /usr/sun/{bin,sbin} first.
nexenta-pkgcmd package using this during "alien" SVR4=>Debian on-the fly
conversion to enable solaris-like environment for SVR4 maintainers scripts.
Example of usage pkgadd to add QLogic SVR4 packaged drivers:
# pkgadd -d Qlogic-x86

Those folks who just want to use real Solaris-like environment on NexentaOS
could simple type:
# SUN_PERSONALITY=1 sh
$
All SUN commands like ls,rm,sed,nawk,etc will be on the path even if you
execute them with absolute path, i.e. /usr/bin/sed
