There are a number of Solaris consolidations which generate IPS packages
natively now, including userland and IPS itself, both of which are kept
outside the firewall, and which are useful as examples.  The makefiles are
pretty hairy, I'll admit, but you can start by simply copying them, and
only tweaking as you need.

The manifest format is very simple, and if you specify your defaults with
transforms, then you pretty much just have to supply pathnames and the
occasional permission, plus all your metadata.
