Is this case actually asserting that the DTD is Committed?

What happens when an archive produced with an older version of Solaris
is restored on a newer version?  Won't some services have changed
names, others deleted, and still other new ones have been created?

It seems to me that correct operation of this feature depends on more
than just the DTD itself.  It depends on the inventory of named
services, but some of those actually represent implementation details
of Solaris and not stable interfaces.
