This booted fine when it was 2009.6, and it boots fine when I reboot after the
install for build 137 if I tell OpenSolaris from the Gnome GUI to skip the boot

manually select OpenSolaris from the Grub menu at boot, it simply resets the
laptop and I'm back at the Post and Grub menu.
This sounds like it might be the early kernel panic problem I saw in
b134 when the graphical boot screen is enabled.
As soon as I chose b134 on the grub menu, it would start to boot,
immediately panic, and reset the machine.
The fix for me was to remove the lines in the menu.lst that configured
the splash image, and the foreground and background colors, and to
remove the console=graphics from the kernel line.
For the reference, that problem is tracked by
6932552 early calls to cv_reltimedwait() are even less safe post 6919691
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6932552
Fix was delivered into build 136.
