statistics or math is two terms gone, but I think we can assume, that
this aproach is not possible, whether this is 2^k or k!

I think the only way is to have '100% Sun compatible <version>' and 
others, where others have to be checked, whether the packges runs with
that VM. Everything else will get messy like hell.
