Evidently you didn't see
http://www.mysql.com/doc/S/o/Solaris.html
I'd suspect using a 2.8 binary on a 2.7 system might cause problems,
but it shouldn't hurt to test it...
There are also older binaries (including some for Solaris 2.7) at
ftp://ftp.mysql.com/MySQL-3.23/
Lastly, you could always compile it yourself from source...t'aint that hard!
