According to Simon Josefsson on 8/13/2008 4:59 AM:

|      libnsl              solaris-2.4
|      libc                solaris-2.5.1
|      libnsl              solaris-2.5.1
|      libc                solaris-2.10
|      libnsl              solaris-2.10

| I.e., normal alphabetical, but sort digits in numeral order.
