This may be considered pedantic/trivial but ...  On updating to 4.0.1 I
noticed that the file /usr/share/sys/conf.common/RELEASE is not
changed,this is output by dmesg and goes into your /etc/motd It's
sometimes useful,especially on a large net of Suns,to know exactly what
you are running,(also to report back to Sun Customer Support), so you may
wish to alter this file if you upgrade.  (4.0.1 is a selective upgrade so
I accept this may not tell you the exact position!)
