This is so great, I feel so good knowing that things get updated. :)
(I added again JDS publisher, this time on top of Hipster, using
'pfexec pkg set-publisher --non-sticky -O
http://pkg.opensolaris.cz/osol/ jds.openindiana.org)'

*Should JDS publisher be added as --non-sticky?
I made non-sticky of everything (sfe, sfe-encumbered, jds) except hipster

I am just thinking, is transfering JDS build to other build process
going to complicate bringing upstream Oracle JDS changes to Openindiana?

Could there be possibly be one place where OI code for Hipster, userland
and JDS resides,
wasn't that hg.openindiana.org?
I suppose having all sources in one place, even if using git as I think
it is now for hipster/userland?

Problem is that with anything after illumos-f898eae / hipster combination,
Firefox dumps core and xchat dumps core, so I can not test it before it
dumps core .
*(How to identify Hipster build by it's illumos release version?)

Firefox 22 used to start working but then on some javascript operations
(uploading file to mega.co.nz) dumped fine, large core.
Dumped cores for 10.0.12 (they are smaller):

xchat core dump: (after update to latest hipster plus JDS):
https://mega.co.nz/#!flJx0aII!QumeZSyCs9w2N_ch5466hQzfNUhP2H_jByD94JcSbOI
When clicking on menu.

Flash stopped working on Hipster from the day one. (crashing playing
youtube videos)

Btw, Firefox newest needs Pulseaudio, that exists on S11 but not on OI,
and for that, FF does not have audio on HTML5 videos
(Oracle porter, Ginn Chen said it will implement workaround for OI for
sound,
but it could be thinking about having Pulseaudio in OI, too.)
