John - this is the debugger socket transport so cc'ing the serviceability-dev list as that is where this code is maintained.

Greetings:
Please consider the following change to the two files:
src/share/transport/socket/sysSocket.h
src/solaris/transport/socket/socket_md.c
that eliminate compiler warnings that stem from the fact that the variables that the native code 
passes to various system calls were not declared correctly. They were declared as integers, but 
they must be "unsigned" integers because they are used to define buffer lengths. Were one 
to supply a negative value as an argument, it would be cast into an unsigned "Martian" 
value and there'd be (hopefully) a system call error.

Thanks!
