Hit that myself, it's in the release notes:

2380 image-update loses /dev/ptmx from /etc/minor_perm
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=12380

    When using image-update or the Package Manager to update to
    build 125 or greater, remote access to the system via ssh(1) or
    rlogin(1) may become unavailable.  Alternatively, using
    terminal programs such as gnome-terminal(1) or xterm(1) may
    result in characters not being echoed or commands unable to be
    typed.

    Work-around: Boot the original boot environment (BE) instead
    and correct the /etc/minor_perm file contained within as
    follows

        <reboot into the earlier BE>
        u...@host$ pfexec beadm mount <name of new BE> /mnt
        u...@host$ pfexec sh -c \
            "grep ^clone: /etc/minor_perm >> /mnt/etc/minor_perm"
        u...@host$ pfexec touch /mnt/reconfigure
        u...@host$ pfexec bootadm update-archive -R /mnt
        u...@host$ pfexec beadm unmount <name of new BE>

    At this point, the new BE can be booted into.
