Alright, so we have libssl_dev 1.0.0c in unstable-5.10. This means
that we can no longer build just on Solaris 9 and link against
openssl, because we need different dependencies in 5.9 and 5.10
catalogs.

As time goes but, I wish more and more that we have some sort of GAR
recipe validator. In this case, it would check for libssl
dependencies, and if any were found, it would suggest expanding
PACKAGING_PLATFORMS to Solaris 10.
