AMD Geodes are 32-bit only. I haven't heard any mention that they

aren't (any substantial) part of the audience we're trying to reach

Didn't know our audience was made up of CPUs :) I like to think (when
in a good mood) that we are trying to reach creative people who can
take OpenSolaris where Sun haven't imagined or been able to.

Then let those folks fix the problem. The issue here is what amount of
effort _Sun_ can put into fixing 32-bit Solaris so as to enable ZFS to
comfortably run on it.
This is an @opensolaris.org alias it is about working together as a
community and identifying problems and discovering solutions. I don't
think it is at all appropriate to bring up Sun business choices here.
Where that is appropriate is when Sun employees need to justify to their
manager what they are working on.
