The "entire" package is an "incorporation" that (mostly? only?)
establishes compatibility rules.  If you want to install "everything"
what you really want is:

pkg install redistributable

But that doesn't really get you what you need either.  This is because
there are some things required to build ON (e.g. WBEM) that is not
redistributable. Also, the version of the Studio compilers that are in
the repository have not yet been updated to the right patch level.
See the following for the instructions you need.  Do not skip the
extras repository, as that is where the non-redistributable WBEM is
found.

http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+indiana/building_on
http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+tools/sun_studio_12_tools

And then send mail to on-discuss and/or tools-discuss pointing to the
page that led you to the unhelpful documentation.  FWIW, those lists
will tend to have people more well-versed in building ON than
opensolaris-discuss.
