>Description:
The pkgsrc-bootstrap procedure requires /usr/ucb/install, which is (at
least with Solaris 9) contained in the system-package SUNWscpu. Thus it
should be added to the list of required packages in README.solaris.
Furthermore the bootstrap-script itself requires /usr/ucb/id in it's
current form. This is also included in an optional package. A safer
way to to check for the uid in is_root() might be to grep for the string
'uid=0' in the output of a plain 'id' call in a similar way as it is
currently done on interix. This will work with the plain 'id' on a vanilla
Solaris install too.
