No, they don't.   They provide information to Sun, which Sun uses to prepare
2D drivers for the low-end 2D cards Sun OEM's from ATI (PGX series & XVR-100).
There is no 3D acceleration for those cards.

If they had a SPARC driver today, it would be for Xsun.   It would probably be
less work to port their Xorg/XFree86 driver from Linux to Xorg on Solaris than
to port a Xsun driver to Xorg.
