I don't know how likely this is, but could it be related to the Solaris 10u9 bugs in the release notes? Here's the info & workaround:
e1000g Driver Generates Corrupted LSO Packets (6855964) Under high stresses, the e1000g driver might generate corrupted LSO packets to cause the Ethernet chip to stall and reset. Workaround: Disable LSO by adding the following line in the e1000g.conf file: lso_enable=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0; Ensure that '0's are in line with the e1000g interface numbers. TCP Corruption Seen With Northstar Cards (6838180) The Intel 82571 chip DMAs might transfer incorrect data but a valid CRC on the network and stop responding. This lack of response results in the device hanging and getting reset.
