Not true, /usr/sfw/bin is the standard Sun location for open source software
included with Solaris.  Anything you get from sunfreeware is installed under
/usr/local.

You only need to modify the PATH if you are using the programs installed by
Solaris, usually old versions (very old in the case of Solaris 9).  If you had
newer ones from sunfreeware you wouldn't need to change the PATH.
