correct, you cannot run unset-publisher for any publisher configured
with the "syspub" attribute. to clean up origins for such a publisher
you could run:
pkg set-publisher -G '*' solaris

assuming that the queer uri is the "proxy://" one, that one is
automatically added into zones via the system-repository service.
basically, every publisher and origin accessible in the gz is accessible
to a ngz via these type special proxy origins. this ensures that ngz
can install software that is in compatible with the gz.
