I'm pleased to report that I did a successful build of slim_source
under illumos, which I believe is based on build 147.  I followed the
README file from the slim_source repository, except that I used the
compiler in /opt/SUNWspro that I'd used to build illumos.  This was
mainly a test to confirm that the documentation was accurate.
