>Description:
This patch makes OpenSolaris <sys/nvpair.h> buildable outside the compatibility environment, so that it can be installed system-wide, along with <libnvpair.h>, making it easier for third party apps to link with libnvpair.

It's been forwarded to OpenSolaris BTS already:
- https://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=16697#c0

See also the discussion on GRUB list [1] about this problem:
- http://osdir.com/ml/grub-devel-gnu/2010-07/msg00263.html

[1] I'm in the process of adding support to GRUB for booting from ZFS
