I recently upgraded krbdev-new from 9.2.31 to 9.3.14.  The lom drivers
wound up being incorrectly installed, preventing the lom utilities
from functioning.  It appears that some driver configuration state may
have been deleted, but the actual driver files remained, confusing a
package install script.

Attempting to use pkgadd to reinstall SUNWlomr didn't help.
Performing an explicit pkgrm of SUNWlomr, followed by a pkgadd, did
succeed in correctly installing the lom drivers.

There do appear to be a number of bugs in SUNWlomr/install/i.drivers;
it doesn't seem to cope with the state where it's being called as an
install script and there are no driver files to install.

An excerpt from update.log follows.
