You can remove those keywords, the resulting objects will be
be OK to use.

I can't promise that you won't hit other similar issues. For example,
the change to direct bindings for OSnet in build 83:

        http://opensolaris.org/os/community/on/flag-days/pages/2008012402/

        http://opensolaris.org/os/community/on/flag-days/pages/2008060601/

may well trip you up. You should probably should read all the heads up
