It's not likely to be included due to the licensing issues - it's already
starting to be removed from Nevada/Solaris Express anyway.   (sdtimage is gone
now.)

You're mixing version numbers there.   The OpenGroup released CDE 1.0 & 2.1.
Sun's CDE has always been based on OpenGroup CDE 1.0, but incremented the
version number for each Solaris release, so Sun CDE 1.7 is still based on
OpenGroup CDE 1.0.   Since the only work Sun is putting into CDE now is
removing it from Solaris, there is no chance of updating to a new OpenGroup
version.

I don't think the Nevada (CDE 1.7) packages will run on Solaris 10, but
have never tried it.
