Well - we do - I don't know offhand where Kelly's repo is, but I could dig it up in my email 
archive.  I wish we didn't have the current state of affairs either.

My only note as I head for the exit and start cooking dinner is that Solaris Express (also 
known as Solaris 11) is not an "official" build platform for JDK 7.  We always want to be able 
to build on the very latest Solaris release (that is what I run, all the time, as much as 
possible), but the JDK7 Release Engineering builds are done on Solaris 10 Update 3 (I just 
checked), and those are not affected by 6637583.

We will fix this as soon as we can.
