I agree with you that the legal eagles should look over the ramifications for Sun. And "clean room" is not a legal requirement, even in the US.
That said, several cases of reverse engineering have been won in the courts simply under the heading of "interoperability". Isn't preventing Solaris from running on a particular machine and interoperate over the built-in wireless enough to allow reverse-engineering? Just my 2 cents.
