Even without looking at the bug report or the relevant source file,  
it's obvious by inspection that this cannot be the correct fix, nor  
can it have been tested.

And in fact bug 6309693 relates to locale definitions, so it's rather  
unlikely that this patch to what looks like a kernel source file will  
fix it.

Judging from the number of similar postings, I'm guessing that some  
professor at the Amrita School of Engineering has set Find and fix a  
Solaris bug as a piece of coursework for an undergraduate course.

Now whilst it's good for Solaris' outreach to involve these students,  
and good for their education, I have to question the value of the  
exercise if the students don't take the time or care to develop  
correct solutions and submit them in a useful way... It just ends up  
offloading their education onto the people who sponsor the fixes.

Pete.

Actually it's Sun's fault - marketing decided to run a contest giving
away iPods, laptops, and desktop computers to students in India who
submit bug fixes to OpenSolaris or one of Sun's other open source projects:
http://in.sun.com/communities/univ/codeforfreedom/

Though since there's also a bonus prize to the school with the most
student submissions, some professor may have done that as well to
win his school that prize.

You'll not be able to fix that since Mozilla was removed from OpenSolaris
when Firefox was added.The bug itself is wrong to begin with since
using Google for search is a good thing, not a bad one.   I'll go close the
bug in the bug db so no one else makes that mistake.
