I am a noob on this, but when I did setup spec files for Wine, it was really
cumbersome and not easy. Maybe it has changed now?

There is nothing like a Debian kernel and this is OpenSolaris.
OpenSolaris is a kernel with userland. *BSD is a different project.

That would be the existing GNU/kFreeBSD project, nothing to do with OpenSolaris.
You can go make all sorts of distros out of non-OpenSolaris components, but
those are off-topic here.

I'm certainly not opposed to open, but the main thing it means to me
is source access (more to look, troubleshoot, and understand, and
maybe never to build), and also a counterweight to the scheme of the day.
In almost every other capacity, the openness of a distro doesn't do a thing
