Oh, and it assumes no one needs 32-bit binaries any more, since all Solaris 11
users have to be running the 64-bit kernel since the 32-bit kernel was EOL'ed.
(32-bit libraries are still there for binary compatibility with other programs,
 it's just most of the /usr/bin/x* commands converted to 64-bit.)

If you care about 32-bit support, that's one more change you'll have to undo.
