Assuming that will contain all the necessary updates to build ON as part of the package (in the past, that was not the case), that should be good.
When specific SS patches were required to build ON, there was a separate tarball that was created explicitly for building ON. The following page contains the links to obtain the (now almost, but not quite) current binaries: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+tools/sun_studio_12_tools I'm not sure who has access to update that page, but it would be good to keep it current for those of us that like to build ON, but don't have access to SWAN (there are a few :P).
