My apologies for the delay in getting this out but hopefully better
late than never...

This includes an update of the changes that Alan provided earlier
including updates to many of the changes that the G11N group delivered
in build 86. As you suggested above, the right way forward was to
exclude usr/openwin consistently but uses drops for any content below
that which should actually be dropped.
This installs and verify-f's cleanly - I'm still in the process of
testing upgrade now that Bart has fixed bug 900 but if I run into any
issues, I will likely file some additional bugs so that others can
build the current repository.
The complete list of bugs addressed is as follows:
233 /usr/openwin has outlived its usefulness
519 VirtualBox on OS X, Indiana DP 2 no network
842 SUNWinstall-patch-utils-root & SUNWswmt are redistributable as of snv_86
965 Add base xVM domU support to CD
978 Switch from FSW* to SUNW* packages for X
1011 terminal window output in latest build results in hard to read text
1026 delete SUNWaspell* from pkg.opensolaris.org
1134 importer sometimes reports an error when chattr_glob'ing objects
1139 Miscellaneous packaging issues
