As I stated in another message: We take every change that is
incorporated into illumos-gate by a jenkins job that runs during the nights.
There is no manual intervention in this process. OI does only little
patches on illumos-gate sources. You can check it as it is inside our
oi-userland repository under components/openindiana/illumos-gate. What
is inside there will be build nightly by a jenkins job.
That is a major difference from other illumos distributions like OmniOS
or SmartOS.
