Interesting.  Thanks for the pointer!  I need to check the Wiki
more often... :-)

So a simplistic method would be just to package this up at a convenient
location, pkgadd it on the desired server, and fire up pkg.depotd...
should be doable.

Of course it would be more elegant to build a SVR4 package with just 
depot.py & friends; and then use the Python already on the system.
But that's a second step.
