Anyone sharing software between OS releases over NFS is asking for trouble.
I've always shared /opt (in general, not only /opt/csw) over NFS, but 
always had one share for each OS release and one "package master" (host 
which pkgrm/pkgadd and patching is run on), and I have neved heard 
anyone even try such a setup...

If we're not able to push OS-specific releases, why is there even a 
separation on the mirrors and support for it in pkg-get/pkgutil?
