You can safely ignore this message if you don't use wireless card based
on Ralink RT2500 chipset.

I just integrated the followings into Solaris Nevada:

PSARC 2007/058 Ralink RT2500 802.11b/g Wireless Dirver
6444193 RFE add support for RaLink wireless chipsets

The ral(7D) driver is based on GLDv3 Framework, you can easily use it by
dladm or nwam. Note that the ral doesn't support WPA/WPA2.
See http://ralink.rapla.net/ for supported devices of ral driver.

Please file bugs at solaris/driver/wifi if you find any problems.

Thanks
