indeed. it is possible and we're already doing so and had no problems
expect for lsof which is fixed now. Some of the packages which were
build on Solaris 8 dpend on the 'x'-libs which are merged in the normal
libs under Solaris 10 so it maybe necessary to install some 'fake'
packages in order to install some packages on Solaris 10.

See also the whole thread beginning with

If you need help with creating fake packages just ask Michael Gernoth
