D'oh, I forgot that OpenSolaris was b86 based. It's this bug:

http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6650717

It's a Xen compatibility bug that we fixed in Solaris since it was
already too late to fix Xen back.

A more recent Solaris Express should work. Not sure when a newer
OpenSolaris release will happen.
