I have been using Axis2C 1.6.0 it in two projects successfully (Linux, Windows both 32/64, HPUX), however mostly in a do-it-myself manner. I fixed a few things (also posted defects and submitted patches) and in the scenario I'm using it, I'm quite happy. Currently I'm playing with it in another scenario and indeed found a couple of memory leaks (however, easy to find with valgrind and mostly easy to fix).
The code itself looks to me a bit cumbersome but at least understandable (which I believe already is something valuable :-) However, in the end, it seems suspiciously quiet and it does not look like major future steps. But if it does right now what you need, why not using it? Building it on HPUX was fiddling with compiler flags, so I'd hope that Solaris is not more difficult? In one of the projects I used it with Rampart in a scenario communicating with a Java server, which was more of a hassle figuring out how it works, but in the end it did.
