Based on questions I got off-line I see I was a bit confusing in my wording.
The putback to ON this week was not the complete contents of 2010/067 - what
was putback with the IPS transition was the changes from OpenSolaris distro
syncing back into the main gate - 2010/067 includes those changes, but also
covers more changes than that putback, which will be the subject of future
putbacks -- but what was putback was also mostly outside that ARC case (it
does import the unfinished ARC cases for pkg(5)/IPS and the new package names,
but is mostly the build infrastructure for using those to build packages - the
pkg(5) command itself did not integrate to the ON gate).
