Description

  1. uname -v
    oi_151a

The 'tr' was introduced by illumos - it's an open source replacement.

The relocation error is here because distro constructor uses 'tr' from the building packages. In this case it was b148.
OpenIndiana 151a contains open 'libc' and 'tr', b148 comes with the closed bins.

So at this point it's impossible to make an iso for pre illumos build using 151a host.

As a workaround someone could replace TR with GNU tr in
/usr/share/distro_const/boot_archive_configure

A documented fix to this 'tr' issue to build distributions from a oi_151a (or a nightly BE) for this would be appreciated if 2011.Q4 - Foreverware [http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/2011.Q4+-+Foreverware] is delayed well into next year.

__nextwctype was introduced in the new locale code in illumos, and previously didn't exist. distro-constructor is apparently running the current tr, which depends on this symbol, using an older libc. It shouldn't be using the old libc at all, this is totally unsafe.
