One more time around for this set of changes.

http://cr.opensolaris.org/~bpytlik/ips-5211-v3/

Same set as last time, but this didn't go back because I wasn't clear if 
people were ok with putting this back without the testcase that was 
discussed off and on.

Unless I hear objections, I'm going to put this back relatively soon 
(think 1-2 days).
