Yes - the plan to modernize /usr/bin and eventually get rid of the need
to have /usr/gnu/bin first in the $PATH to provide a modern experience
has been around since far before the Oracle acquisition - dating back to
the start of Project Indiana pretty much.
BTW, if it was true that every /usr/bin utility was going to be replaced
by a GNU one, would there have been a half dozen bug fixes to the Solaris
version of tar over the past couple of months?
