Regardless, you should've griped then and not now when a serious issue
is trying to be remedied.  I'll be submitting a patch today to the
MAINTAINERS file, as well, to remove my name from the status of 'Solaris
maintainer'.  I nominate you for that position.

I wouldn't know, but I see it as irrelevant.  Solaris is the only true
SVR4 that MPlayer 'officially' supports, as I know it.  By the language
of the code that was in question (main/loader/ldt_keeper.c), that was
true, as well.
