While I support "SunOS 5.11" naming, I am a bit afraid of compatibility
divergences with the coming Solaris 11, also known as "SunOS 5.11". So
we will have two different systems reporting "SunOS 5.11" that are not
actually the same system.

I don't have any better proposal, though. Maybe considering any
incompatibility with Solaris 11 a "bug to be fixed" could be a good
advice. Time will tell, I guess.
