Is Solaris the only OS where I need to worry about this, then?

@Sildoreth; Given how many Unix variants there are, this is a very broad question that I dare not to answer generally. But Solaris is the only one that I heard of and it's the only one widely known to have that problem with its standard bin directories and the programs therein. - Let me add; usually you'd know the systems you are developing for, and (hopefully) also test your software on those systems. In case of doubt, I'd just check those systems to be sure.
