It was disappointing that the fix for this bug did not make it into Update 4. Even more disappointing if it's not fixed in Update 5!
It seems that Sun's policy is to wait for the customers with a support contract to complain before they will back port a fix, even if the fix has been know for months/years & is relatively trivial. This seems crazy to me, but hey, it's Sun product and they can choose to do as they like with it. I would guess that a lot of potential customers are just using Nevada / OpenSolaris and cannot be bothered to go through the support process. So if you do not want to pay for a support contract, then you may well be better to switch to a Nevada build or OpenSolaris (aka Indiana). Many of the iscsi target bugs have been fixed recently. But with Nevada there is always the chance that a bad bug may be introduced which may cause you to have a really bad day :-(.
