   Martin's code is based on the the Oracle baseline (more or less), and 
one benefit is that he has identified the gaps between Illumos and Oracle 
Solaris, though one of his solutions wasn't quite kosher, and should have 
a different solution.  This, however, was based on the review I did last 
December before he choose to chastise me for noticing this, and I choose 
to look no more.
