The SRSS component in 5.1 and 5.1.x is delivered as a component
base (SRSS 4.2 Revenue Release) plus a couple of incremental
patches that get applied on top of the base.  This style of delivery
means that going from 5.1 to 5.1.1 to 5.1.2 is quick and relatively
painless, because the base remains in place and only the relatively
small incremental patch is applied by the SRS installer.

However, it also means that if  your platform can't accept those
patches then your platform can't get 5.1 or 5.1.x.  Solaris 11
Express does not have the traditional Solaris patch tools.

I can't comment on when or how (or even whether) SRS will be
made available for Solaris 11 Express.
