My concern is that this PR hasn't even been touched in over two years.
If we leave it open it's not likely anyone will pick it up because it
deals with an old version of FreeBSD, an old version of Solaris, and
since it deals with interoperability between the two, it's difficult to
judge whether it's a FreeBSD bug, a Solaris bug, or a misconfiguration
issue.  Finally, if a new person experiences this on newer versions
of FreeBSD and Solaris would it really be a crime if they had to open
a new PR?

Having said this, if you still feel it should be left open I will,
ofcourse, be glad to re-open it.

Best regards,
Mike Barcroft
