There's not a set date, yet, for the next FCS release of Sun Studio, but
we are planning on releasing the next Sun Studio Express build within
the next 6-8 weeks (roughly).
Access checking did improve with SS12 + latest patches (SS12 has support
for x86), but if there are issues/RFEs, let us know. What improvements
are you specifically looking for in XIPO? Good time to get RFEs/etc.
in! Also, there is runtime analysis of race conditions via Thread
Analyzer in Sun Studio 12. Are you looking for enhancements?

PS. Here's a bug reporting/RFE system that Sun Studio uses:
