How far did you get builds to work on Solaris out of interest?

We don't support it since none of us have access to it and it is
something we've never really been asked about before.

We did used to add BUILD_OS to OVERRIDES so that you could do build
system overrides to variables. It was so rarely used we ended up
dropping it though.

I'm not against the idea of Solaris support but I'd want to understand
how invasive it is and it may be better starting as a separate layer.
That layer could append to OVERRIDES to make the metadata easier for
example.

Also, is this running builds on Solaris, or is this building SDKs to
run on Solaris. I suddenly realised this could be taken both ways.

Cheers,

Richard
