Give us a little time and OpenSolaris will be running on those machines.
See http://www.blastwave.org/articles/BLS-0055/index.html
and furthermore, it may even be possible some day for OpenSolaris
developers to be working with this :

Sounds like marketing I know. But a year ago someone would have smirked
at the idea of OpenSolaris actually booting a native kernel on PowerPC
anytime soon. So I tell you now that its only a matter of time before
a full port of OpenSolaris is running on those new IBM machines.
