My impression is that the OpenSolaris community is very aware of this issue.  
The 

http://pkg.opensolaris.org

repository exists already and I am sure will grow significantly as more people 
move to IPS.  I will have another repository of my sunfreeware x86 packages 
soon.

I will be updating both the server software that runs my Companion CD 
repository and the packages there this week.
