That sure is a very good reason. How Solaris-specific most of the spec  
files are?
How difficult would it be to patch another port tree (like the Net BSD one)  
with patches from the spec files?
Are most of the patches used in OpenSolaris packages open solaris related  
or Sun Studio vs gcc related?
(Those ones are not as useful on Belenix, are they?)
How difficult would it be to port RPM/yum to solaris?
