Description Mike Reid CLA 2010-07-21 14:57:37 EDT 
Solaris uses an ABI version scheme for system libraries. This change is to constrain the ABI version used to that available on Solaris 9. This enables builds to occur on newer Solaris ABI levels that can still be run on older machines.
Comment 1 Mike Reid CLA 2010-07-21 16:16:49 EDT 
Upon further investigation the problem is introduced because of the dependency on inet_aton. In Solaris this function was undocumented and not part of any public ABI until Solaris 10. Solaris 9 provides inet_pton which provides similar functionality.

Patch attached which uses inet_pton in favour of inet_aton which then removes the dependency on the newer Solaris 10 ABI. Additionally this removes the dependency on libresolv.
