I agree that software outside of ON should not rely on the current
libcmd.

There are a couple of consumers in other consolidations already:

% elfdump /usr/dt/bin/dtlogin | grep cmd
            libcmd.so.1                 SUNWprivate_1.1
     [162]  D        [8] libcmd.so.1        defopen
     [179]  D        [8] libcmd.so.1        defread
     [398]  D        [8] libcmd.so.1        defcntl
       [8]  NEEDED           0x16eb            libcmd.so.1

% elfdump /usr/bin/gdm-binary | grep cmd
            libcmd.so.1                 SUNWprivate_1.1
       [4]  NEEDED           0x298c            libcmd.so.1

% elfdump /usr/X/bin/xlock  | grep cmd
            libcmd.so.1                 SUNWprivate_1.1
     [107]  0x0002eb14 0x00000050  OBJT LOCL  D    0 .data       cmdlineTable
      [23]  DBL      [9] libcmd.so.1        defcntl
      [55]  DBL      [9] libcmd.so.1        defread
      [76]  DBL      [9] libcmd.so.1        defopen
       [9]  NEEDED           0x85c             libcmd.so.1

Not an unmanagable number if change is needed, just enough to require
coordinating with a number of people first.
