The problem is the freeware -- not Solaris. All freeware that uses the GNU utils should prepend a 'g' to them (ex. 'ggrep, gsed, etc.'). Solaris follows this naming convention for the most part; however, the vast majority of freware assumes your userland is ripe with GNU utils.
Rather than committing such fixes to Solaris, users building such freeware should send patches to the maintainers of that particular project. -- Derek E.
