I always compile from source on production Solaris 9 & 10 machines. 
Otherwise, I'm stuck with old packages and missing the latest security 
updates. People get hacked for not staying up to date on things like 
openssh, bind, php, etc. Backup software less so. I use sunfreeware for 
various utilities and things so that I don't have to make a production 
out of everything. But important, principal software, I compile from the 
latest source, always keeping an eye on security alerts.
