11221 beadm create core dumps on OpenSolaris 122 SPARC
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=11221

When using build 122, an attempt to create a new boot
environment (BE) via beadm(1M) or indirectly through "pkg
image-update" may result in a "segmentation fault".

Work-around: Boot into an earlier boot environment and then
manually create the desired BE from there. For example, to
image-update from build 122 the following set of commands can
be used

<reboot into the earlier BE>
u...@host$ pfexec beadm create -e <name of build 122 BE> \
<name of new BE>
u...@host$ pfexec beadm mount <name of new BE> /mnt
u...@host$ pfexec pkg -R /mnt image-update
u...@host$ pfexec beadm unmount <name of new BE>
u...@host$ pfexec beadm activate <name of new BE>

At this point, the new BE can be booted into.

Seems to be fixed in b124. I had to go back to b111b to
install b122 and b123. PITA :-). Hopefully b124->b125
will be a bit easier...
