OpenPKG 2.1 officially supports  sparc64-solaris8,
naturally there can be bugs in openpkg or Kolab,
but we need to rely on people reporting these
and on helping fixing them.

As I wrote before this might be an openpkg problem
you might want to report and solve first.

First we need to find out where that message comes from 
and what script is to blame. Changing options of diff does not seem
to be a major hassle to me, if that is at one place and you can paste the line
here.

First we need to find that place.
kolab_bootstrap is a perl script.
