A fair number of them are actually impossible for you to maintain as we
never released the sources for them (things like the Solaris CDE & Motif
packages), and are likely just repackaging of the redistributable binaries
from OpenSolaris, complete with the bugs and security holes they had back
in 2010.
A few are open source - for instance, I could point you to the sources for
x11/network/x11-network-proxies - but no one uses that in a world where
ssh X11-Forwarding is prevalent, which is why I removed that package from
Solaris and declared the upstream sources unmaintained and suggested that
distros remove them.
