$ pfexec rolemod -K type=normal root

$ pfexec svcadm restart ssh
I didn't have to do anything else on a fresh upgrade of snv_124.

Yes, that's exactly what you would need to do to change the root account
from a role to a regular user and allow it to be used with ssh.
I was puzzled because Harry seemed to be saying that previous
OpenSolaris releases had behaved this way out of the box, but given that
he followed those steps earlier it all makes sense.
