All OpenSolaris components are built with the standard Common Build
Environment or CBE. At the moment, the C compilers used for this are
Studio 11 (plus patches) and the bundled gcc 3.4.3. I'm not aware at
the moment of a precise date for upgrading to Studio 12 although work
is underway on evaluating it from regression and performance
perspectives.
The official Studio part of the CBE can be found internally via the
following automount point
/ws/onnv-tools/SUNWspro/SS11
or externally via
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/tools/sun_studio_tools/sun_studio_11_tools/

I would recommend also asking the database-discuss at opensolaris.org
community for their input too.
