Well, are they saying that they will not make any mt/lb drivers 64-bit, or
just won't make your driver 64-bit?

Well yes this is disturbing, I though supporting solaris 7 implied
64-bit drivers... I'm migrating my servers soon, and 64-bit operation
is the default of all modern Sun's in Solaris 7.
You have to "hack" to make it boot in 32-bit mode.

Actually I think it's almost fraud to sell something as "solaris 7
supported" without supporting 64-bit operation.
