I've traced back the man page for the 'wall' command back to Solaris 2.4
(the oldest I could find online [1994]). This too had the '-a' option to
also send messages to pseudo terminals, instead of just the console
window. So I guess it has always been like that and for our purpose it
would probably be sufficient to use 'wall -a' instead of 'wall' if we
detect a Solaris system.
@Huge: Could you post a diff for the change you made?
Best regards, Arjen
