Ok, I'll grant you, that coexisting with optional locally hand-built
software is unduly hard. But to rebuild your own versions of what comes
with the OS is gratuitous, IMHO... OpenSSL, zlib, bzip2 all come with
Solaris-8 and are of reasonably recent versions. Rebuilding these from
pkgsrc should be an option...
