- SunOS 4.1.x is Solaris 1.y, so you shouldn't use s-sol2.h. Solaris 1.x and
- Solaris 2.0 are very different, so it doesn't work to interchange them.

- Neither of those features are in GNU Emacs 18.x. You're thinking of Emacs
- 19.x, which hasn't been released yet (although there's an early release
- that Lucid has put together, commonly being called Lucid Emacs 19.1).
