        Not quite so simple

        Solaris 2.4 warns on rm -f
        Solaris 2.6 does not

        Solaris 2.6 man page talks about xpg4 whereas the 2.4 man page makes no
mention of xpg4. However that man page also states that historical Solaris
behaviour is the norm and xpg4 compliance is in /usr/xpg4/bin so I suspect this
is a red herring.
