That was my implied point.

I was under the very distinct impression that the existing SUNWbinutils will deliver symlinks in /usr/bin. But then, that did not appear to be the case. I therefore concluded that the symlinks were removed for a reason. --Stefan -- Stefan Teleman Sun Microsystems, Inc. Stefan.Teleman at Sun.COM
