    * SunOS basic regexps are very /basic/: no support for character classes like
      [:alnum:], no '+' (not even '\+') and the greediness of stuff like '\{m,n\}'
      is not well defined, which is a problem in sed 's/.../.../' (according to
      the man page, it should work only with regular expressions matching a single
      character, i.e. not with '\(...\)').  Therefore, a lot of parsers had to be
      rewritten, especially the one for (versioned) dependencies.
    * Don't use grep's -q option, it's not portable.  Use >/dev/null instead.
    * Awk on SunOS is very basic as well.
    
    Currently it still fails in configure, but at least it gets there...
