I've started working on it, but its not high-priority for me, since
NetBSD does OSS as well. Anyway: The way Solaris handles stuff is a
bit different from that NetBSD handles it. Therefore expect this
to come with XFce 4.2 (atleast if nobody else wants to do it :).

Exactly.

I guess Olivier does not consider this be ready for inclusion.

I provided a patch for this some time ago, but edscott reworked the
stuff (mainly because FreeBSD has had problems IIRC). I think it
has worked on Solaris in the meantime, but I'm not sure.
