 # The libproc Pstack_iter() interface changed in Nevada-B159.
-# This logic needs to match
+# Use 'uname -r -v' to determine the Solaris version as per
+# Solaris Nevada team request. This logic needs to match:
 # agent/src/os/solaris/proc/saproc.cpp: set_has_newer_Pstack_iter():
 #   - skip SunOS 4 or older
 #   - skip Solaris 10 or older
-#   - skip two digit Nevada builds
-#   - skip three digit Nevada builds thru 149
-#   - skip Nevada builds 150-158
+#   - skip two digit internal Nevada builds
+#   - skip three digit internal Nevada builds thru 149
+#   - skip internal Nevada builds 150-158
+#   - if not skipped, print define for Nevada-B159 or later
