Solaris Nevada build 20 (for which we are about to release the source drop) has the following significant bug (6302583):

One side effect of the bug is that 64 bit systems (sparcv9/amd64) will not be able to start X.


That should only affect sparcv9, not amd64, as x86/amd64 systems don't use
kernel mode drivers for frame buffers.   (With the exception of the nvidia
accelerated driver, but that's not included in Solaris yet, and I don't
think uses modload, so shouldn't be affected by this either.)


Ah, my mistake.  Thanks!
