Brought to you by:

On Solaris 8 systems there are two versions of
tail: /usr/bin/tail and On Solaris 8 systems there are two
versions of tail: /usr/bin/tail and /usr/xpg4/bin/tail. The
tail options "-1 -f" are only supported with
the /usr/xpg4/bin/tail command. Having a tail-cmd-name
option would allow Solaris users to specify which tail to
use. eg:
--tail-cmd-name=/usr/xpg4/bin/tail

It's coming in version 3.1. I'll post a fresh beta copy soon.
