True...

Maybe the Solaris 10 version, but I can't recommend you use these due to 
potential incompatibility with illumos.

It would mean that, yes.

They don't seem odd at all.

The 5720 support from the nexenta webrev is *probably* stable enough where it 
could go back into illumos-gate, if not OmniOS's child.

I'm sorry I can't be of more immediate assistance.  The earliest I could get 
5720 support into ANY OmniOS would be in the "bloody" repo, and unless I have 
paying customers beating down the door, it would be a low priority project.
