It has been replaced by the posix unit.

The solaris port is a 'posix' port: We are going to base all posix-
compliant systems on a 'posix' unit, which will contain the needed posix
calls for the system/dos/sysutils calls.

The posix unit is not yet complete, i.e. not all posix types/calls are
included yet. Any contributions to this are welcome.
