I have access to racks of hardware and can probably help here.

I think my most recent builds were flawless on Solaris 10 SPARC and I
used
both older ( SPARC type II ) and the latest ( Oracle SPARC M7 ) with no
issues. On a personal note, the SPARC M7 4GHz monster is frighteningly
fast.

Let me check my most recent build logs here :

    curl-7.47.1 says test report says
.
.
.
OK (1003 out of 1004, remaining: 00:00)
TESTDONE: 771 tests out of 771 reported OK: 100%
TESTDONE: 1014 tests were considered during 524 seconds.

So I think what some people most likely want ( or need ) is an easy
access package to install. I have been talking internally about an
IPS repo for Solaris 11 systems ( the newer ones ) and a SVR4 pkg
service again for Solaris 10. It's just an idea on the table at the
moment however.
