I do nearly 100 package builds a year (various snapshot releases and
occasional official patches) on multiple variants of SunOS and Linux.
The build process has not changed dramatically since ~2.0. The core
install_root + config parameters interface is still the same.

If the old package interface broke, I would have noticed.

Even with multi-instance support coming in 2.6, the basics won't change.
Just don't forget to run:

        # postfix set-permissions upgrade-configuration

when upgrading a system with an existing configuration.
