STUN is not a tunneling protocol, but a protocol for hosts to detect the 
presence of NATs.

Teredo, however, is such a tunneling protocol, and Solaris does not 
currently implement it.  What is your particular use case?

As Dan mentioned, if all you need is a point-to-point tunnel between two 
IPv6 nodes, then one way to accomplish what you want is by configuring an 
IPv6 over IPv4 tunnel, and using IPsec NAT traversal.  If you need more 
than that (i.e., the automatic tunneling benefits of Teredo and 
reachability to all nodes on the IPv6 Internet), then this won't help you 
at all.
