I guess it can be kinda hard to push compatibility fixes (like additional 
configure-checks, #ifdefs in code, etc etc) into KDE if you don't have a CVS 
account or can't spam somebody who does with patches on an almost 24/7-basis 
(like I do with adridg :). But then, my impression is that KDE isn't that 
picky in handing out commit-bits, so perhaps you should just ask, Stefan 
(T.)? You're the Solaris packager dude after all.
