Looks ok, but I keep thinking the tracking of the patches can be made
a bit easier. I see the comments saying apr_brigade.patch corresponds
to "r630780", but how will you (or someone else who doesn't remember
this thread) in the future easily know whether the fix is in the
sources next time the opensolaris version gets upgraded (well you'll
know when the patch fails but I was hoping for something cleaner)?
Looking at apache release notes
http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/CHANGES_2.2.8 it seems the issues
fixed are listed by bugid so why not mention the apache bugid that
corresponds to each *.patch in the Makefile.sfw (when available)?

(This can also help highlight which *.patch files are
opensolaris-specific and don't [yet?] correspond to upstream apache
bugids.)
