OK, I know people in Sun and possibly H-P I could ask, and I may have

maintain the platforms as "Python supported"?
You can ask me as far as Sun goes. There are probably a variety of
options:
1) Get the open source version of VirtualBox and use it to run a
virtualized OpenSolaris
2) I can see if we can get folks access to a box running Solaris
3) I can ask and see if there are people at Sun who would be willing to
jump in and help
We actually have a couple of Solaris buildbots already - as I understand
it, the issue there isn't Solaris as such, it's being able to use the
Sun compiler instead of GCC to compile ctypes/libffi.
Cheers,
Nick.
