Sun still publishes the Solaris Express Community Edition at 
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/downloads/sol_ex_dvd/

The is similar to SXDE, but it still uses the old-style installer. 
You'll still have the xVM option in grub after installation.

I haven't checked in a while, but I think the compilers are also shipped 
on that DVD, but aren't installed by default.  Look around the DVD and 
you should find a script you can run.
