AFAIK, on both Opteron an Athlon X2 Solaris uses syscall, rather than sysenter.
The catch here is that it starts with the least optimized libc at

point SMF uses moe(1) to find out most suitable version of libc and
lofs-mount it
on top of the original. From this point on AMD machine will use syscall.
