the "inherit-pkg-dir" property is only applicable to solaris distros

applicable to opensolaris system. using it on opensolaris based systems
will result in undefined behaviors and unsupporable configurations.
we actually have a bug filed on this issue:
567 ipkg zones verify callback should abort if it sees inherit-pkg-dir
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=8567
the fix for this bug will verify that ipkg brand zone configurations
don't have any inherit-pkg-dir properties, and if they do the
configuration will be reported as invalid.
The labeled brand used by Trusted Extensions in opensolaris is still
using the inherit-pkg-dir property, but this is described in bugzilla
9191 labeled zones should no longer rely on sparse-root functionality
and a fix will soon be putback to the /dev repository for 2009.06.
Since the labeled brand shares much of its configuration with the ipkg
brand, bugzilla 567 should be integrated after 9191.
