The catch is of course that stuff that makes it into OpenSolaris isn't 
guaranteed to be carried over into Solaris. So, while ISC's DHCP might be 
perfectly fine for OpenSolaris, if it isn't merged into Solaris and there 
should trouble with PXE and JumpStart, there's noone to turn to for commercial 
support. That's what I meant by support for JumpStart and PXE.

It's technically possible. All that would need to be done if for ISC's DHCP to 
have his own FMRI istance defined. That's almost trivial, actually.
