uname -v output for Solaris 9 12/02 (x86 Platform Edition)

For the sake of consistency with the SolarisTM 9 12/02 (SPARC Platform Edition), the uname -v output string for the Solaris 9 12/02 (x86 Platform Edition) displays Generic_xxxxxx-xx. This display occurs despite the fact that no x86 KU currently exists. For example, the system was not patched with KU xxxxxx-xx.

Customers see no change in behavior. The Solaris 9 12/02 (x86 Platform Edition) functions as if it were patched with KU xxxxxx-xx. The reason for this behavior is that all appropriate bug fixes and features were delivered through the installation packages.
