Hi Trevor,

They were imported as binaries from Solaris 11 Express (151a) as all
of the software included is under open licences.

It is not clear if the current xVM binary builds come from a newer
non-public tree or if the public trees reflect the last update. My
only involvement in xVM for oi_148 is patching one of the libraries
used by xend's Python implementation to depend on libscf.so, so that
suggests these binaries are quite stale as well.
